Hello?
Hello!
Who goes there?
We are the clan of the cave bear women

It be the sewage of the drain

The lyrics to D.L. Hughley's "Women" tell the story of a group of weary travelers who encounter a tribe of cave women. The travelers initially approach a fountain to quench their thirst, but the women warn them not to drink from it, as it is sewage. The women then offer to lead the travelers to a source of clean water and food, and suggest they rest their tired souls.
The interaction between the travelers and the women is presented with a comedic tone, with the men making jokes about the women, but also expressing gratitude for their help. The lyrics play with gender roles and stereotypes, presenting the women as primitive and uncivilized, while the men are presented as modern and humorous.
Overall, the lyrics to "Women" are a commentary on the power dynamics between men and women and the assumptions we make about gender roles. The song challenges these assumptions by presenting a scenario where the women are the ones in charge, taking care of the tired and hungry travelers.
