about
My riot grrrl anthem is here just in time to help you take charge of the New Year - and your bodily autonomy. I wrote this song to disentangle a lifetime of mixed media messages and societal projections onto my female body - and ultimately celebrate the basic worthiness of ALL body machines.
lyrics
MY BODY IS. LYRICS
***
my body is a temple
my body is a slave
my body is a prison
and my body is a wave
my body is a fishbowl
ha
my body it’s a stage
my body is an ocean
and my body is my rage
my body is my flesh, my bones
my blood, my skin
my body is
this body is
this body is where I live
that’s all it is
what?!
my body is my future
my body it’s so fashionably cold
but this body’s not for sale
on no, this body will not be bought or sold
my body is my flesh, my bones
my blood, my skin
my body is
this body is
this body is where I live
that’s all it is
my flesh, my bones, my blood, my skin
my flesh, my bones, my blood, my skin
my body is
my body lives
my body gives
my body shifts
my body’s gonna twist the script and flip the switch
my flesh and blood
how ‘bout my skin and bones
my flesh and blood, my skin and bones
head and shoulders, knees and toes
my flesh and blood, my skin and bones
my eyes and ears and mouth and nose
my flesh and blood, my skin and bones
head and shoulders, knees and toes
my eyes and ears and mouth and nose
my tits and ass and elbows
this body it’s my only home
won’t you just leave it alone
my body is
my body is
my body just IS.
my body is
it’s where I live
my body is
my body, my body, my body
my body is
my body is a tunnel
my body is a chain
my body is a roadmap
and my body is a stain
