sisters are doin it for themselves

Spice Girls

Now there was a time when they used to say
That behind every great man
There had to be a great woman

But in these times of change
You know that it s no longer true
So we re comin out of the kitchen
Cos there s somethin we forgot to say to you

We say
Sisters are doin it for themselves
Standin on their own two feet
And ringin on their own bells
Sisters are doin it for themselves

Now this is a song to celebrate
The conscious liberation of the female state
Mothers, daughters and their daughters too
Woman to woman
We re singin with you

The inferior sex has got a new exterior
We got doctors, lawyers, politicians too
Everybody take a look around
Can you see, can you see, can you see
There s a woman right next to you

Sisters are doin it for themselves
Standin on their own two feet
And ringin on their own bells
Sisters are doin it for themselves

Oh we ain t makin stories
No, we ain t makin plans
Don t ya know that a man still loves a woman
And a woman still loves a man

Now there was a time (there was a time)
When we used to say (when we used to say)
That behind every great man
There has to be a great woman
Well in these times of change
You know that it is no longer true
So we re comin out of the kitchen
Cos there s somethin we forgot to say to you

And that s
Sisters are doin it for themselves
Standin on their own two feet
And ringin on their own bells
Sisters are doin it for themselves

Sisters are doin it for themselves
(Doin it, doin it, do-doin it, doin it)
Sisters are doin it for themselves
(All of my sisters, all of my sisters)
Sisters are doin it for themselves
