about

He Said She Said was written in response to section 72 of The Domestic Abuse Act of 2021. Inspired by stories in the news and some of our own experiences, we offer this song as a voice for the countless women who have been harmed by or lost their lives to domestic or sexual violence. It's a topic full of sadness but we wanted to wrap it in an upbeat sound ad swap the sadness for strength. We’re not here to make you cry, we’re here to light a little fire in you.

lyrics

A boy once said
that I’d look good in Marigolds.
Did it cross his mind,
the bruises he was leaving behind?
On my way far away on a bus to the station
risk a little education
on the ways of the world
from a stranger sitting next to me.

[Chorus]
Is it the clothes I wear? The tight blue denim?
Tell me what I did wrong!
It’s always he said she said.

You tell your sons
“stop crying like a little girl”.
And your daughters they know
their power’s in their glitter and curls.
Drift away while I wait for a change in the station
Playing with my reputation.
Slip away from the world
and chase me dreaming.

[Chorus]
Is it the clothes I wear? The tight blue denim?
Tell me what I did wrong!
It’s always he said she said.

And though you see it there in colour vision
this isn’t what I want,
it’s always he said she said.

It’s always.
Why is it always he said she said.
It’s always.

Is it the clothes I wear? The tight blue denim?
Tell me what I did wrong and on and on and on and on.
(Risk a little education)
This isn’t what I want and on and on and on and on.
(Risk a little education)
Tell me what I did wrong on and on and on and on and on.
(It’s always he said she said)
This isn’t what I want and on and on and on and on.
(Stop crying like a little girl)
