[Verse 1]
Bb F Gm Eb
In the church where I was raised, all the women hid their hair
With what can only be called doilies made of lace
Bb F Gm Eb
They sat beside their husbands and they never spoke a word
Cause public prayer was not a woman's place
[Verse 2]
Bb F Gm Eb
But literally any man was welcome to stand up
And for an hour we would listen to them talk
Bb F Gm Eb
So I guess the lesson there was God would only hear a prayer
If it came from a person with a cock
[Verse 3]
As a kid those Sunday mornings made me restless, bored, and numb
And my Bible was the one way to pass time
So I spent the hour in search of stories brimming with suspense
And I found Esther, Ruth, and Rahab were sublime
[Chorus]
Gm F Bb Eb
Castaways who outwitted and outplayed
An immigrant ancestor to the incarnate divine
Gm F Bb Eb
Everyone has a star that lights their way
We see our paths by someone else's shine
Cm F Bb
Esther, Ruth, and Rahab, they were mine
[Verse 4]
Bb F Gm Eb
Every Sunday I would find a brand-new story with a girl
Who made some patriarch meet his match
They were painted as conniving but it wasn't hard to see
That secretly most men just fear the snatch
[Verse 5]
Bb F Gm Eb
Deborah's military mind brought peace for forty years
The Witch of Endor, she saw right through Saul's charade
Of course Eve said, Fuck this system, I am chasing after wisdom
And Rachel wouldn't let herself be played
[Verse 6]
Jezebel sure gave 'em hell, but she wasn't scared to die
If you're with Jael, think twice when you recline
The only reason we have Moses is cause Miriam was there
To keep his petty ass in line
[Chorus]
Gm F Bb Eb
Castaways who outwitted and outplayed
An immigrant ancestor to the incarnate divine
Gm F Bb Eb
Everyone has a star that lights their way
We see our paths by someone else's shine
Cm F Bb
Esther, Ruth, and Rahab, they were mine
[Bridge]
Cm Bb Eb
When they talk about the heroes of the faith
They always mean Elijah, Abraham, or Dave
But Esther, Ruth, and Rahab, for me were just as big
I wanted to be like them, so I bought myself this wig
[Outro]
Bb F Gm Eb
My church insisted women all be small, submissive, and unseen
But their own holy book betrayed that lie
Cause in those pages you'll find badass, rebel warriors and queens
Bb F Gm Eb
Prophetesses, witches, whores and wives all causing scenes
Bb F Gm Eb
Every woman in the Scriptures smashed the norms to smithereens
So it's a good thing when a girl learns how to fly
And that's one truth from the Bible I'll hold onto 'til I die
