Vidéo : M(h)aol – Asking For It

M(h)aol se définit comme suit : Feminism. Animal welfare. Chipper chips. Leur premier EP, Gender Studies donnait le ton en militant pour plus de femmes dans le punk. Leur premier album Attachment Styles à paraître le 3 février enfonce le clou avec des titres comme Bored of Men, No One Ever Talks To Us ou Bisexual Anxiety. Asking for it ouvre le disque et dénonce les agressions faites aux femmes. C’est un cri pour faire changer la peur de camp et faire cesser le désespoir.

M(h)aol – Asking For It

You say it’s changed your life
Well it’s changed mine too
Life feeling safe at night
And not being in the news
I was asking for it
Was I asking for it ?

How much did you drink ?
And what did you do ?
Did you feel afraid when
It was him and you?
Were you asking for it ?
Was I asking for it ?

I’ve heard what they say
About girls like me
I’m just the dumb bitch
That left the party with you
Was I asking for it ?
Did I ask for it ?
Was I asking for it ?
Did I ask for it ?

No !

When I screamed in the night
I wasn’t screaming for you
I was afraid of the things
That you’d do
I was asking for it
Was I asking for it ?
Did I ask for thi s?

Oh you learned your lesson
Well I’ve learned mine too
My whole life won’t be
Defined by you
I was asking for it
Was I asking for it ?
I never askеd for it
You never asked mе for it
I never asked for it
And we both know the truth
The world loves people
Who look like you
