Sister Blister

Alanis Morissette

Transposer:

You and me we're cut from the same cloth It seems to some we famously get along But you and me are strangers to each other Cuz you and me: competitive to the bone Such tragedy to trample on each other With how much we've endured with the state this land is in And you and me feel joined only by gender We are not all for one and one for all Sister blister we fight to please the brothers We think their acceptance is how we will win They're happy we're climbing over each other To beg the club of boys to let us in You and me estranged from the mother You and me have felt impotent in our skin You and me have taken it out on each other You and me disloyal to the feminine Such a pity to disavow each other With how far we've come With how strong we've been And you and me are on this pendulum together You and me with scarcity still fuelling Sister blister we fight to please the brothers We think their acceptance is how we will win They're happy we're climbing over each other To beg the club of boys to let us in We may not have priorities same We may not even like each other We may not be hugely anti-men But such a cost to dishonour a sister You and me have made it harder for the other We forget how hard separatism has been You and me we can help change their minds together You and me in alignment until the end Sister blister we fight to please the brothers We think their acceptance is how we will win They're happy we're climbing over each other To beg the club of boys to let us in

La chanson aborde la relation complexe entre deux femmes qui sont censées être unies par leur sexe, mais qui se retrouvent en compétition constante. Malgré les épreuves traversées ensemble, elles réalisent qu’elles se battent pour plaire aux hommes, cherchant leur approbation au détriment de leur solidarité. Elles prennent conscience que cette rivalité les éloigne l'une de l'autre et qu'en négligeant leur lien féminin, elles s'infligent mutuellement des souffrances. Dans ce contexte, il est important de réfléchir à la manière dont les femmes ont souvent dû composer avec des normes imposées par une société dominée par les hommes. Au lieu de s'entraider, elles se retrouvent à s'entre-détruire, oubliant parfois les valeurs de soutien et d'unité qui pourraient les renforcer face aux difficultés. La chanson appelle à une meilleure compréhension et une réconciliation, soulignant que le véritable pouvoir réside dans la solidarité féminine.
