Fyr Meaning

[[Verse 1]
Ten short years of progressive change
Fifty fucking years of calling us names
Can we trade Title IX for an end to hate crime?
RU-486 if we suck your fucking dick?
One step forward, five steps back
One cool record in the year of rock-rap
Yeah, we’ve got all the power, getting stabbed in the shower
And we’ve got equal rights (on ladies’ night)

[Pre-Chorus]
Feminists, we’re calling you
Please report to the front desk
Let’s name this phenomenon
It’s too dumb to bring us down

[Chorus]
F.Y.R. – fifty years of ridicule
F.Y.R. – take another picture
F.Y.R. – fifty years of ridicule
F.Y.R. – take another picture

[Spoken]
I wonder whether we could be happy in a place like that

[Verse 2]
Mrs. Doubtfire on Mother’s Day
On-the-job stalker for equal pay
Toss us a few new AIDS drugs as national healthcare bites the dust
While you were on vacation black people didn’t get reparations
You know, these days no one’s exploited
Sorry dude, can’t hear you with my head in the toilet
, [Pre-Chorus]
Feminists, we’re calling you
Please report to the front desk
Let’s name this phenomenon
It’s too dumb to bring us down

[Chorus]
F.Y.R. – fifty years of ridicule
F.Y.R. – take another picture
F.Y.R. – fifty years of ridicule
F.Y.R. – take another picture

[Spoken]
I wonder whether we could be happy in a place like that

[Bridge]
You’ve really come a long way, baby
It’s you, not the world, that’s totally crazy
‘Cause we really rocked the fucking vote with election fraud in poor zip codes
Celebrate gay marriage in Vermont by enforcing those old sodomy laws
One step forward, five steps back
We tell the truth, they turn up the laugh track

[Spoken]
I wonder whether we could be happy
I wonder whether we could be happy
I wonder whether we could be happy
I wonder whether we could be
, [Pre-Chorus]
Feminists, we’re calling you
Please report to the front desk
Let’s name this phenomenon
It’s too dumb to bring us down

[Spoken: Paula Poundstone]
I had a friend who did that
She used to ride the subway in New York City
From the beginning of the line at New Lots Avenue
All the way up to 241st Street in the Bronx
And nobody would bother her]
