Mary wears a red dress every night

Her opposites are corner lights

Working for the man who keeps her in her place

Working late

Sister secretary sweats all day

Underneath the bosses phone

Back to see him after hours for a raise

What a shame

We got our women in chains

Women in chains

What good are women in chains?

Isn't it strange, people are afraid to change

We got our women in chains



Suzie, mother, housewife scrubs the floor

Always drives the kids to school

Never keeps her husband waiting for a meal

Such a deal



He goes on a bender, she stays home

Waiting for another fight

The booze is in the bedroom mirror never faid

She's afraid



We got our women in chains

Women in chains

What good are women in chains?

Isn't it strange, people are afraid to change

We got our women in chains



You don't have to wear your cuffs tonight

You don't have to be a slave

You don't have to buy your freedom with your pain

It's a shame



We got our women in chains

Women in chains

What good are women in chains?

Isn't it strange, people are afraid to change



We got our women in chains

Women in chains

What good are women in chains?

Isn't it strange, people are afraid to change



We got our women in chains

Women in chains

Women in chains

We got our women in chains

We got our women in chains
