Only Women Bleed Lyrics


Artist: Alice Cooper



Man's got his woman to take his seed
He's got the power - oh
She's got the need
She spends her life through pleasing up her man
She feeds him dinner or anything she can

She cries alone at night too often
He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed

Man makes your hair gray
He's your life's mistake
All you're really lookin' for is an even break

He lies right at you
You know you hate this game
He slaps you once in a while and you live and love in pain

She cries alone at night too often
He smokes and drinks and don't come home at all
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed

Black eyes all of the time
Don't spend a dime
Clean up this grime
And you there down on your knees begging me please come
Watch me bleed

Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed
Only women bleed

really deep lyrics
by christy on 7/5/2008 11:07pm
These lyrics weren't supposed to be "cool," it is a tribute to one mans uderstanding of what life was really like for most women in that time. And for that matter what it still is for many.

This is the real truth and the real life... everything is said here!!!

The song is about spousal abuse. It's to get people thinking about what some women have to deal.

Hopefully it will make some women realize that they have to call the police and leave the relationship and make men realize that they should make sure that these sort of cowards have to be stopped by the fathers, bothers, sons, relatives or neighbors of the victims.

I'm glad AC writes about more than driving a pick up truck or girls.

This is a great song to play in a club. No s&!t.
by Mama Jan on 10/24/2008 8:33pm
This song is a sad sad song. Women who live this life, and their are SOOO many, usually end up in those Texas cults, believing that only the men can be smart and must take control cuz the women are just stay there and take it. What a shame men have become.
by rj on 11/3/2008 3:45am
This song is cool for woman who had to go through what is mentioned. For others, it aint worth listening coz it aint a great rock song!!

One of the problems with leaving an abusive marriage is that many women do not have the resources- personal credit history, financial resources and other logistical dilemmas. Rebuilding your life from the bottom up- especially if you didn't have an independent life previously- is quite daunting.

I've been there; my ex-husband would do the whole "smokes and drinks and don't come home at all" bit. He never hit me or our kids, but the relationship was very emotionally abusive and rebuilding my life was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do.

What a shame yet a reality check, this used to be me. My divorce was like a rebirth, I changed in what I feel was a positive way and now they say I am like a pencil in the hands of God, writing Love letters to the world.
by Amazon Wannabe on 1/9/2009 11:20am
Interesting that Mama Jan ends by commenting what a shame men have become, but the Alice who's pointing out the situation is indeed a guy...
by alex on 1/14/2009 1:04pm
Some of us can see the irony in lyrics =)
by Suzy on 1/15/2009 4:51am
Your fuckin own fault. Why in the hell did you choose that bastard in the first place when the world is full of nice, gentle men who whine about their loneliness and who would never harm a fly?

Take the fucking responsibility of your choices, and think with your brain and not with your hormones, you silly cows!

Suzy: what a shame you have no idea of what you speak. Violence against women and domestic violence is a complex social issue, sadly supported by ignorance such as yours
by J Jill on 2/20/2009 10:31am
I'm not sure that he is saying that domestic violence is okay, merely that she should not have married someone like that. [that is to say that he was like that before they married] But yes, like you said, it is very sad and it is never the abused spouse's fault.
by Amber on 3/3/2009 10:58am
He was bringing forth a hush hush situation to light. Going to point out in 1975 when this song was written not many understood or even Noticed spouse abuse so No he isn't saying that this behavior is acceptable at all. as for the woman "Suzy" You have no clue what you are talking about. You see This song for me hits home. I met a "nice man" Kind sweet took good care of me until after the vows where said. Then the bastard come home one night stoned and drunk Beat me nearly killed me. SO Shut the hell up until you know what you are talking about little girl.

I have lived this hell myself. I was finally able to leave, but he kept finding me everywhere I moved.

He lived a very fast and violent life, drinking wasn't his only vice. He was into drugs too.

I found freedom when he died at a very young age. I no longer have to fear him finding me again.
by parko on 3/26/2009 5:54am
my girlfriend left me and went back to it. i cant work it out.
by EvaLis. on 5/28/2009 5:23pm
Suzy. It´s very easy to be condemning but rather hard to face the fact that this could happen to you.
by John in Paris in Psychobolia on 7/7/2009 10:23am
I don't trust anything that bleeds three days and doesn't die!
by Donna on 7/12/2009 2:35pm
I grew up watching this happening to my mother back in the 70's. Swore it would never be me. I met a nice man married he started drinking and became the man my step-father was. Took me 10 yrs of putting up with it but I finally found a way out. My girls will Never live the life myself or mother lived. thank you A.C. for such great lyrics with such personal meaning for myself and so many others!!!

This song is sexist. Men abuse women. Women abuse men. Asserting that "only women bleed" makes the bad assumption that men are powerful and women are powerless. Girls, don't give him the power. Egalitarianism rules. And Suzy, I hear you but you're a guy.
by Jacquelyn on 8/22/2009 7:29pm
You know we all make our own choices in this life when we can ,, but unfortunately we are not always in control to make choices in which others take for granted ,,Most woman when in a situation go in to a denial phase and blame thierselves for his abusive behavior and is why most never seek help as they are not only afraid of what he will do when the laws fail to protect her if she runs and society is so quick to judge she is afraid the blame will fall back on her so she makes excuses and hides the marks and quietly cries so he will not hear,, her only escape is hoping someone will rescue her a family member of someone to help stop her nightmares,, before it is too late ,,
by Pieta on 8/23/2009 7:24am
I agree with alex, there is irony in this song, even if he didn't intend it
by grace on 10/10/2009 12:17am
never happened to me - but i'm not blind to see - and know that every human being deserves to be treated in a humane way - simply because they are human - regardless of how or why they are in that situation -don't judge
