To bear a false witness
For a lack of resistance
And I will bear your cross no more
If nothing is moving
For the point that you’re proving
What is the point of your useless score?
Turn in your robe for a Handmaid’s gown
Subservience known the whole world round
Slave girl, who are trying to fool?
And I will have my revenge on you
You take up my body
As if you now own me
A commodity bred for breeding seed
This life now acknowledged
To your dominant bondage
Bound to reproductive slavery
Turn in your robe for a Handmaid’s gown
Subservience known the whole world round
Slave girl, who are trying to fool?
And I will have my revenge on you
Am I not human?
Just a televised Truman?
Is this how you wish to entertain
Your bought and sold masters?
Repeat your fathers’ disasters?
For a power your sisters could not attain?
Turn in your robe for a Handmaid’s gown
Subservience known the whole world round
Slave girl, who are trying to fool?
And I will have my revenge on you
Turn in your soul for a longer leash
A traitorous hag to patriarchy
Deliver a generational wound
And we shall have our revenge on you
