    Lyrics:
    This is a song about getting the work done
    Hair up in a bun, that's the most fun
    Hearing myself think when I go for a run
    Or maybe I'm practicing the drums
    Or maybe I'm writing in the sun
    The takeaway point is I'm talking to no one
    Protecting my vibes that are wholesome
    Doing my best to solve actual problems
    If. You. Want. To. Hang. With. Me.
    Then. You. Have. To. Roll. Up. Your. Sleeves. And. Work. With me
    This ain't no time to come flirt with me
    Pipelines and drills are destroying the earth you see
    I cannot stand all the constant misogyny
    Tie my hair back so there ain't nothing stopping me
    It's a top knot turn up (Ayyyy)
    It's a top knot turn up
    The top knot turn up, turn up, turn up
    It's a top knot turn up
    The top knot turn up, turn up, turn up
    It's a top knot turn up
    The top knot turn up (Ayyyy)
    It's a top knot turn up
    Top knot turn up
    The top knot turn up, turn up, turn up
    It's a top knot turn up
    The top knot turn up, turn up, turn up
    It's a top knot turn up
    The top knot turn up (Ayyyy)
    So tie up and tie up and tie up your hair
    And throw back those curls
    So tie up and tie up and tie up your hair
    And throw back those curls
    Uh, throw back those curls
    Throw back, throw back, throw back those curls
    I turned off my phone's notifications
    So I have more time
    No bubbles to trouble
    My clear state of mind
    One thing to know, I'm not here to please
    Hair tied up, I do it properly
    My time is not your property
    When I'm productive like my ovaries (Ayyyy)
    Give a brown girl room to breathe
    Basic rights and her liberty
    Free from insecurity
    That the world's projecting onto me
    Please do not trouble me
    When I am focused
    The future is female
    We already know this
    And fighting against the corruption on SCOTUS
    Turned up in my top knot since when I first wrote this
    (Ayyyy)
    It's a top knot turn up
    The top knot turn up, turn up, turn up
    It's a top knot turn up
    The top knot turn up, turn up, turn up
    It's a top knot turn up
    The top knot turn up (Ayyyy)
    It's a top knot turn up
    The top knot turn up, turn up, turn up
    It's a top knot turn up
    The top knot turn up, turn up, turn up
    It's a top knot turn up
    The top knot turn up, turn up, turn up
    It's a top knot turn up
    The top knot turn up (Ayyyy)
    It's a top knot turn up
    It's the top, it's the top knot turn up
    That's when I get all my work done
    With my curly blonde hair in a bun
    That's when I'm having the most fun
    Madame Gandhi
    Top knot turn up

    The ancient Greek writer Horace believed that the purpose of literature was two fold: to teach a moral lesson, but also to entertain an audience. He encapsulated this in the Latin phrase “dulce et utile” meaning sweet and useful. This is the ultimate downfall of dulce et utile

    So the song is cool, but I was a little taken back by the visual effect on the top of the girls head in the very last scene. Did anyone else notice that..it seemed... (clear throat) odd? I know she's about female power and all, but that seemed a bit much.

    • @lwatersmusic
      @lwatersmusic Před 3 lety +1

      It’s just anatomy. Symbolism for feminine power. Doesn’t come off as odd to me. For god sakes, they play a song called wet ass pussy on the radio. A uterus and ovaries are absolutely the least of my concerns
