[Intro]
(Girls)
Coachella, thank you for allowing me to be the first black woman to headline Coachella (Girls)
Ain’t that ‘bout a bitch? (Girls)
This song is dedicated to all the incredible women that opened up the doors for me
Thank you so much, ladies
Do we have any strong women out there tonight?
Sing along
[Pre-Chorus: Beyoncé]
Girls, we run this motha, yeah
Girls, we run this motha, yeah
Girls, we run this motha, yeah
Girls, we run this mutha (Here we go)
[Chorus: Beyoncé]
Who run the world? Girls (Girls)

[Verse: Beyoncé]
Some of them men think they freak this
Like we do, but no, they don’t
Make your check, come at they neck
Disrespect us, no, they won’t
This goes out to all my girls
That’s in the club rocking the latest
Who will buy it for themselves and get more money later
I think I need a barber
None of these niggas can fight me
I’m so good with this, I remind you, I’m so hood with this
Boy, I’m just playing, oh, come here, baby
Hope you still like me, F you, pay me
[Pre-Chorus: Beyoncé]
My persuasion can build a nation
Endless power, with our love, we can devour
You’ll do anything for me
Who run the world? Girls (Girls)
[Chorus: Beyoncé]
Who run the world? Girls (Girls)
Who run the world? Girls (Girls)
Who run the world? Girls (Girls)
Who run the world? Girls (Girls)
Who run this motha? Girls
Who run this motha? Girls
Who run this motha? Girls
Who run this motha? Girls
Who run the world? Girls (Girls)
Who run the world? Girls (Girls)
Who run the world? Girls (Girls)
Who run the world? Girls
[Outro: Beyoncé]
Who are we? (Who are we?)
What we run? (What we run?)
The world (Who run this motha?)
Who are we? (Who are we?)
What do we run? (What do we run?)
We run the world (We run this motha)
Who are we? What we run? We run the world
Who run the world? Girls
[Interlude: Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie]
We teach girls to shrink themselves, to make themselves smaller
We say to girls: “You can have ambition, but not too much
You should aim to be successful, but not too successful
Otherwise, you will threaten the man”
We raise girls to see each other as competitors
Not for jobs or for accomplishments
But for the attention of men

Some of them men think they freak this
Like we do, but no, they don’t
Make your check, come at they neck
Disrespecteer ons, nee, dat doen ze niet
This goes out to all my girls
Die in de club de nieuwste rocken
Die het voor zichzelf kopen en later meer geld krijgen.
Ik denk dat ik een kapper nodig heb.
Geen van deze nikkers kan tegen me vechten
Ik ben hier zo goed in, ik herinner je eraan, ik ben hier zo goed in
Jongen, ik ben gewoon aan het spelen, oh, kom hier, baby
Hope you still like me, F you, pay me
[Pre-Chorus: Beyoncé]
My persuasion can build a nation
Endless power, with our love, we can devour
You’ll do anything for me
Who run the world? Meisjes (Girls)

Wie runt deze motha? Girls
Who run this motha? Girls

[Outro: Beyoncé]
Wie zijn wij? (Wie zijn wij?)
Wat runnen we? (What we run?)
The world (Who run this motha?)
Wie zijn wij? (Wie zijn wij?)
Wat doen we rennen? (Wat doen we rennen?)
Wij runnen de wereld (We run this motha)
Who are we? What we run? We run the world
Who run the world? Girls
[Intermezzo: Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie]
We leren meisjes om zichzelf te verkleinen, om zichzelf kleiner te maken
We zeggen tegen meisjes: “Je mag ambitie hebben, maar niet te veel
Je moet ernaar streven succesvol te zijn, maar niet te succesvol
Anders zul je de man bedreigen”
We voeden meisjes op om elkaar als concurrenten te zien.
Niet voor banen of voor prestaties
Maar om de aandacht van mannen.
