It's easy to get swept into this society's norms
In a World of "After you" and "Ladies first"
All wrongs seem to come at you in the right forms.
In a World of "After you" and "Ladies first"
In a world where girls and guys can intermingle
In a world where it's a virtue to stay single
Where the only guideline is in each persons ability
Where everyone has stripped themselves of liability
We tend to forget the people of our history
making the achievement of good deeds a mystery
such as the story of a man in madyan
who helped some women get water from a well
such as the story of a man in madyan
who into his desires, he did not sell
"come with me" the girl said
and to her father, he was led
the father was impressed with his manly nature
He wanted to see this man of great stature
on the way he did not twidle
making sure there was no chance for shaytan to fiddle
Ahead of the girl he chose to walk
and if he were to walk too far, he bid her to throw rocks
he dared not walk behind her
not because of arrogance or pride
he dared not walk behind her
for fear he would take joy in their stride
a man of great stature indeed
a man who truly did succeed
A different story, today's society does tell
A different story, into which many of us fell
a story of "After you" and "Ladies first"
