about

This song was written to combat sexist stereotypes in a fun and rockin' way. We started out as a girl band, and with the androgynous Crayon Jones on bass guitar, this recording still has loads of feminist power, RAWR!! It's a free download (just enter 0 as the price), or you may optionally make a donation: All proceeds from this track will go to the Girls Rock Camp Alliance and/or one of their affiliated branches:

lyrics

They’re talking bout you on the street
Heard you guys are pretty neat
And your music’s super sweet, yeah

Took off my shoes to get my dance on
Staying classy, kept my pants on
Though you boys are pretty handsome

You say you’re in a dude band, dude band
Well, I wanna rock with you
You call yourselves a dude band, dude band
dude band, dude band, dude band, dude band
You say you’re in a dude band, dude band
I wanna rock with you
Oh, you call yourselves a dude band, dude band
Isn’t that just great for you?

Said you needed lungs for hire
So I told you my desire
To join the band I so admire
How you gonna go reject this
Just because I got two Xs?
This ain’t a battle of the sexes

You could use some more diversity
Wouldn’t even have to change the key
I might be just the voice you need
Gimme one shot and I’ll hit that tone
Or do I need more testosterone
To stand behind your microphone?

You say you’re in a dude band, dude band
Well, I wanna rock with you
You call yourselves a dude band, dude band
dude band, dude band, dude band, dude band
You say you’re in a dude band, dude band
I wanna rock with you
Oh, you call yourselves a dude band, dude band
Dude band, dude band, dude band, dude band, dude band

OH YEAH!
Dude band

You said you needed a Korg
You could have tried out a Moog too...

I know that I’m crazy
But I’m the right kind of crazy for you
Oh, I know that I’m crazy
But I’m the right kind of crazy for you
For you, for you
