[Verse 1]
You could ride a unicorn to school
And if you fall off, you'd have healthcare
(No, you don’t)
And if you finish school, you'd go to college for free
That makes sense and that's fair
(No, it’s not)
And if you were a lady
Then you own your lady parts
Just like a man goes to a dealership
And then he owns a car

[Refrain]
Vroom, vroom
Fuck you (Fuck you)

[Pre-Chorus]
What if life as we knew it was over?
Guess what? God is a woman, I know her

[Chorus]
What if rich, white, straight men
Didn't rule the world anymore?
(Hahahahahahahahaha)
What if rich, white, straight men
Didn't rule the world anymore?
(Hahahahahahahahaha)

[Verse 2]
If you're from another land, then come here
You won't have to climb a wall
(Yes, you will!)
And if you are a boy who loves a boy
You'll get a wedding cake and all
(Not in Colorado!)
And if you are a lady and you do your lady work
Then you will make as many dollars as the boys
Not just two thirds

[Refrain]
Cha-ching
Fuck you (Fuck you)

[Pre-Chorus]
What if life as we knew it was over?
Guess what? God is a woman, I know her

[Chorus]
What if rich, white, straight men
Didn't rule the world anymore?
(Hahahahahahahahaha)
What if rich, white, straight men
Didn't rule the world anymore?
(Hahahahahahahahaha)

[Bridge]
Twinkle, twinkle little star
How I wish the world was different
Where who you love and who you are
Was nobody’s fucking business

[Chorus]
What if rich, white, straight men
Didn’t rule the world anymore?
(Hahahahahahahahaha)
What if rich, white, straight men
Didn't rule the world anymore?
(Hahahahahahahahaha)
What if rich, white, straight men
Didn’t rule the world anymore?
(Hahahahahahahahaha)
What if rich, white, straight men
Didn't rule the world anymore?
(Hahahahahahahahaha)

[Outro]
What if...?
(penny drops)

Kesha Rose Sebert, whose mononymous stage name was previously spelled Ke$ha, is an American singer-songwriter best known for hits like “Tik Tok” and “Praying.” Her mother, Pebe Sebert is also a songwriter, and the two have worked together on songs like “Learn to Let Go.”

In 2005, at age eighteen, Kesha signed a record deal with Dr. Luke’s Kemosabe Records. Her first major recording was an uncredited feature on Flo Rida’s 2009 hit “Right ‘Round,” which she recorded after walking into a session between Flo and Dr. Luke. She released her debut album, Animal, the next year, after choosing from hundreds of songs, and the record debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 chart. Lead single “Tik Tok” broke the record for the longest time for a female artist’s debut single to top the Billboard Hot 100.

Nine months after Animal dropped, Kesha rereleased it alongside Cannibal, an extended play featuring hits like “We R Who We R,” which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, and “Blow.” In February 2011, Kesha kicked off her Get Sleazy Tour, which travelled through the Americas, Europe, and Australia. During the tour, she began writing for her sophomore album, Warrior, which was released in November 2012. She then embarked on a world tour, and was joined by future “Timber” collaborator Pitbull on the North American leg.
