[Verse 1]
How different the ladies of long ago
To the modern women that we all know
If you observe you are bound to see
That sex has changed entirely
A long ago their one ambition in life
Was to be a mother and a wife
Now they go out imitating the males
By smoking cigarettes and drinking cocktails
[Verse 2]
Girls used to like to be school teachers
Gradually becoming stenographers
We next hear of them as lecturers, authors and engineers
There is no limit to their ambition
They've even gone in for aviation
And if you men don't assert control
Your women will rule the world
Hey hombre!
[Verse 3]
Now they say anything that your man can do
They also can achieve too
And they've openly boasted to do their part
In the literature and art
We will next hear of them as candidates
For the president of these United States
And if you men don't assert control
Women will rule the world
[Verse 4]
Now you hear on the radio and TV
Of a great national calamity
Story of tragic proportion
Coming from the White House in Washington
The facts in the case are clearly stated
The President is being cruelly dominated
By a international conspiracy
That threatens world peace and security
Women Will Rule the World was written by Raymond Quevedo.
