Dorian Electra – Control lyrics

[Verse 1: Zuri Marley]
Never trust a demon told a father to his son
A woman is a devil unless she is a nun
Controls her body with her herbs
The church call this a witch's curse
Her power makes them feel disturbed
They tie her up and watch her burn

[Verse 2: Dorian Electra]
Good girls stay at home, don't go out to work or vote
Womanhood is on the brink, motherhood going extinct
Midwives are to blame, flushing babies down the drain
Plus they hurt our profit gain; stop these women, they're insane

[Pre-Chorus: Dorian Electra & Zuri Marley]
They try to shut us up and shut us down
Try to start a fire, burn us to the ground
Don't try to control what belongs to me
Get your hands, get your hands off my body

[Chorus: Dorian Electra]
Control (control), get your hands off my body
Control (control), taking it back tonight
Control (control), no more control, just let it go
Control, get your hands off my body


[Verse 3: K Rizz]
Anti-abortion, anti-immigration
Joined forces against foreign races
They feared foreign overpopulation (huh)
Want white folks to keep procreatin'
Whatchu scared of? Something lil' spicy?
Genetically inferior, huh? Bite me!
Tube tying, folks just like me
So baby now we got bad blood, fight me

[Verse 4: Chynna]
First off, I don't like needles
Neither do my people, never seen as equal
Sterilize my women, not a question of permission
But a lesson in the art of stealin' anything they need to
Women in the slave trade, all of 'em were "fair game"
"Born to be a temptress", said that nature was the main blame
Never had an option before they got the test done
Testin' their eugenics on my women, we the test run
But where they get thought from? (thought from)
Hitler only the beginner, guess who taught him?
California been a sinner, Google it
It's been proven U.S. movin' like a hypocrite

[Pre-Chorus: K Rizz & Chynna]
Uh, they talkin' 'bout "dirty genes"
Acting like the blood on their hands is clean
The science was baseless, the premise was racist
Get your hands, get your hands off my body


[Chorus: Dorian Electra, Chynna & K Rizz]
Control (control), get your hands up off my body (get it off)
Control (control), taking it back tonight (that's right)
Control (control, no control), no more control, no no just let it go (let it go, uh, uh)
Get your hands, get your hands off my body

[Verse 5: London Jade]
Yeah, I got the body of a goddess (goddess)
Even though your religion didn't want this (want this)
Yeah, I'm the witch, I'm the shaman (shaman)
They wanna hate me 'cause my body isn't common
Woah, you wanna place my gender?
And then you wanna shame me, wanna blame my temper?
Society will tell you that I'm playin' dress up
But I'm natural, I can make you feel the pressure, uh
And don't try to overpower my spirit, my mind, my soul, and my flower
Open up your mind, maybe you will understand
Trans doesn't focus on the parts up in my pants
So don't control my body with science
'Cause me and my girls will form an alliance
Pussy don't purr when you messin' with the lions
Coming for you quick and we 'bout to start a riot

[Bridge: Zuri Marley]
Differences in our experience, are you listening?
Don't stay quiet when they erase our images
You blow yourself a kiss. Are you a “feminist?”
Hold me, hold me, hold me, but don't try to control me


[Chorus: Dorian Electra]
Control (hey hey), oh get your hands off my body
Control (control) taking it back tonight
No more control, no no, just let it go
(No more control, no no, no more control, no no, yeah)
Control (control), get your hands off my body
Control (control), we're takin' it back tonight
Control (control), no control, just let it go
Get your hands, get your hands off my body
