In their usual sarcastic, sassy style, Bikini Kill take on a common topic in their music – female sexuality. Even in today’s world, women are often shamed for their sexuality. While it’s okay for guys to sleep around, if a girl does it, she’s a ‘slut’ or a ‘whore’.

[Intro]
Hey, do you believe there's anything beyond troll-guy reality?
I do, I do, I do
[Verse 1]
It gets so hard
Just to be okay
Sometimes being happy, baby
Is what I'm most afraid of
[Verse 2]
Baby, you know
It gets so hard for me to fight
I don't know why, I guess I never did
Why don't you show me now how to lose control?
[Chorus]
She's so very, "I don't care"
She's so very, "I don't care"
[Verse 3]
Just 'cause my world, sweet sister
Is so fucking goddamn full of rape
Does that mean my body
Must always be a source of pain?
[Chorus]
Ah-no-no-no, no, no-no-no
She's so very, "I don't care"
She's so very, "I don't care"
[Verse 4]
Just 'cause I named it right here, sweet chickadee
Don't mean for a minute that you should think
I'm the opposite of anything
But if you want to know for sure, I'll tell you
[Verse 5]
We're not going to prove nothing, nothing
Sittin' around, watching each other starve
What we need is action, strategy
I want, I want, I want, I want, I want it now!
[Outro]
No-no-no
I believe in the radical possibilities of pleasure, babe
I do, I do, I do
