Not Your Way Lyrics - Our Own House - Misterwives

Over being told to be undressed to look our best 

Everywhere my eyes go, our figure is less, voice suppressed 

But look how very far we have come 

Cast a vote, wear pants and prop up a gun 

No, it's not your way, not your way 

Not going to obey, to obey 

This is my body, body 

And you don't have a say, have a say 

This is my own life, own life 

Not growing up to be a trophy wife 

So don't parade us 'round, 'round we go 

In your twisted world and I'm saying no, no 

No, it's not your way, not your way 

No no no no, no no no 

Lower and lower our standards go as your money grows 

Fill us up with plastic and cut us up and tie a bow 

But look how very far we have come 

Strip us of our width, disguise it like we have won 

No, it's not your way, not your way 

Not going to obey, to obey 

This is my body, body 

And you don't have a say, have a say 

This is my own life, own life 

Not growing up to be a trophy wife 

So don't parade us 'round, 'round we go 

In your twisted world, and I'm saying no, no 

No, it's not your way, not your way 

No no no no, no no no 

Are we making ourselves clear? 

We're all the same under here 

This is my disposition 

Apologies for breaking your traditions 

It takes two to tango 

And we're saying (two, three!) 

It's not your way, not your way 

Not going to obey, to obey 

This is my body, body 

And you don't have a say, have a say 

This is my own life, own life 

Not growing up to be the trophy wife 

So don't parade us 'round, 'round we go 

In your twisted world, and I'm saying no, no 

No, it's not your way, not your way 

No no no no, no no no
