“Room For The Life” is the 12th track of Kate Bush’s debut album The Kick Inside. In an interview with Phil Sutcliffe published in the August 30, 1980 issue of Sounds, composer and performer Kate Bush said “Room For The Life” has been mistaken for a feminist song, while it is actually a plea to go “...
[Verse 1]
Hey there, you lady in tears
Do you think that they care if they're real, woman?
They just take it as part of the deal
Lost in your men and the games you play
Trying to prove that you're better, woman
But you needn't get heavy with them
Like it or not, we were built tough
'Cause we're woman
[Pre-Chorus]
No, we never die for long
While we've got that little life to live for, where it's hid inside
No, we never die for long
Oh, woman, two in one
[Chorus]
There's room for a life in your womb, woman
Inside of you can be two, woman
There's room for a life in your womb, woman
Mama, woman, aha
[Verse 2]
Night after night in the quiet house
Plaiting her hair by the fire, woman
With no lover to free her desire
How long do you think she can stick it out?
How long do you think before she'll go out, woman?
Hey, get up on your feet and go get it now
Like it or not, we keep bouncing back
'Cause we're woman
[Pre-Chorus]
No, we never die for long
While we've got that little life to live for, where it's hid inside
No, we never die for long
Oh, woman, two in one
[Chorus]
There's room for a life in your womb, woman
Inside of you can be two, woman
There's room for a life in your womb, woman
Mama, woman, aha
[Outro]
Mama, woman, aha (Ma-wo-ma-nah, ma-wo-ma)
Mama, woman, aha (Ma-wo-ma-nah, ma-wo-ma)
Oh, no, no, two-in-a-one, aha
Mama, woman, aha (Ma-wo-ma-nah, ma-wo-ma)
Oh, two in one, aha
Mama, woman, aha (Ma-wo-ma-nah, ma-wo-ma)
Oh, woman, two-uh, two-uh, two-uh, two-uh, two-uh
Oh-oh, two in one
Ooh, oh-oh, two in one, oh
Mama, woman, aha
Ooh, oh-oh, two in one, oh
Oh-oh, two in one, oh
Mama, woman, aha (Oh)
