Isn’t language wonderful, there are so many words
There’s synonyms and antonyms, metaphors and verbs
With language there are so many ways to convey the very same thought
But somehow when it comes to women and sex, comprehend words some men cannot
Chorus:
No means no, but so do other things too
Like not right now and I don’t want to
I don’t think so, this doesn’t feel right
It’s not gonna happen tonight
Now you may have noticed that none of those phrases actually contained the word “no”
But you knew what they meant, didn’t you? It’s easy, don’t you know
You don’t have to have superpowers, you don’t have to read her thoughts
You just have to give a shit about what she really wants
Not everyone wants to have sex with you, it sounds crazy, but it’s true
Even if you’re famous, or really hot, or have lots of money, or happen to be their boss
“What if she was nice to me?” “What if she didn’t say ‘no’?”
“What if she made a horrified face, and said ‘I should probably go’?”
After last chorus:
So don’t try to make it happen tonight ‘Cause if you do that’s sexual assault
