War Measure (feat. The Knights & The Westerlies)
Aoife O'Donovan
Carrie, I got your missive and I'm with you girl
I welcome the opportunity to say that I agree
The time is nigh for your admission to the suffrage
The services of women during this crisis
Must be repaid, lead ya to paradise
It's over there
Carrie, as for this country I only hope
That the senate will give an answer
Unmistakably making you able to use your voice
And cast a ballot
If they pass this amendment to our constitution
We are gonna be talking about revolution
It's over there
We need you in our vision of affairs
Your skills are beyond all compare
You got sympathy and insight
Your shoulders bear the weight of the world
The women of our country fair have beating hearts
And dirt in their hair
We gotta show them that we trust them
As much as we need them now
Do it now!
Carrie, I see you standing on the precipice
I begging of you, keep fighting for true justice
And you'll find the the laws of the land
Will soon be in your favor
I am telling you this is a war measure
We can't win the Great War without this treasure
Womenkind! Womenfolk!
We're not wheels without spokes!
Let them vote, let them vote
Let them vote!
