Minister of Culture |
| A pretty bride of India |
| Is burned with kerosene |
| Her husband keeps her dowry |
| And his freedom is achieved |
| A Burmese girl in Bangkok |
| Is of value for her skin |
| Sold for her complexion |
| Never saw her home again |
| The minister of culture |
| He argues so well |
| His teeth are flashing |
| As he details |
| A legacy of murder |
| A heritage of rape |
| A time honoured tradition |
| To maim and mutilate |
| Cut away her labia |
| With dirty broken glass |
| She died of an obstruction |
| Painfully infected mass |
| A dress code violation |
| Is an outrage in Iran |
| Splashed her face with acid |
| Only then the fun began |
| The minister of culture |
| He argues so well |
| His teeth are flashing |
| As he details |
| A legacy of murder |
| A heritage of rape |
| A time honoured tradition |
| To maim and mutilate |
| She wasn’t good enough |
| A female child |
| Left face down packed in the snow |
| Umbilical cord around her tiny feet |
| She suffers and dies alone |
| A woman in a western home is under house arrest |
| A drunkard is her jailer he’s entitled to molest |
| Her daughter is passed over when she tries to raise her hand |
| The likelihood of her success is not an even chance |
| The minister of culture |
| He’s wringing his hands |
| He keeps on laughing |
| As he demands- |
| No human right applies here |
| Our women will agree |
| Our property has spoken |
| No cause to intervene |
| Our property has spoken |
| No cause to intervene |
