Mary Kutter - Build Your Own House Lyrics

When a guy gets gray hair, he's called a fox
When a girl does, better fix it with a L'oreal box
Climbing ladders, they say "she's brave"
But once she gets ahead, they say
"Who'd she get under to get on top"

When a guy sleeps around, he's got some game
When a girl does, the next morning's called the walk of shame
If she's mad, it's her time of month
Healthy means small waist, big butt
There's a fine line 'tween "looks great" and "she's fake"

If they're gonna judge either way, hey

Look pretty with botox, look pretty without
Have kids or a dog, stay single or say vows
Dream your own dreams, wear your own crown
And if you see a glass ceiling, go build your own house

Ya get a ring, lose your last name, such a precursor
Bun in the oven, career now is on the backburner
If it's a girl, she's raised the same
They hate if ya go against the grain
They work so hard ...to try and control her

Can't change the world in a day, but we get closer when we

REPEAT CHORUS

And as you build it, there isn't a limit
To help others build their own house

We all got our own roads we're gonna go down
And only you can stop yourself now
So dream your own dreams, wear your own crown
And if you see a glass ceiling, go build your own house

If you see a glass ceiling, go build your own house
