Lyrics
How will we do it when it's never been done?
How will we find a way where there isn't one?
So what just happened?
Did Carrie kick you out? Or did you quit?
As in, kick us out of NAWSA altogether?
(Yes!) How will we afford our travel?
How will we raise any money?
Have you even thought of money?
How will we-? (We can do it!)
How will we do it when it's never been done?
I want us to meet someone
A socialist
A socialite
Alva Belmont (Alva Belmont)
I divorced my husband for philandering
Now I got his millions for philanthropy
(You really think she'll give her money to a radical squad?)
Every worthy cause needs a rich old broad!
Alva Belmont!
I'm Alice Paul (oh, I know who you are, doll)
We're starting a women's political party (what? We are?)
We'd love for you to join it
(You mean you'd love for me to fund it)
Oh! That would be great
(Let me get this straight)
You girls just stood in front of the suffrage establishment
And the national press, no less
And declared political warfare on Wilson and his party
While the country's on the brink of war itself
And now you shamelessly demand my riches of me?
For this risky rebel coup -
The nerve of you
I love it!
To whom do I make out the check?
The Women's Party
Should be the National Women's Party
Gives it more oomph
(Women's Party is sharper)
Is this enough to cover your plans?
(National Women's Party, it is)
Now wait a tick!
You capitalist elite really want to exploit the working class
To promote your own dominance
Ooh, I like you
You really put the rage in suffrage
What's your name, darling?
(Ruza) Rosie! Be a good little socialist and socialize
(That's not what that means)
'Cause I've got a surprise
Close your eyes
Rosie! Close your eyes
Open sesame!
Welcome to your new NWP headquarters
Right across the street from the White House
(Holy mackerel!) (It's huge!) (This is all for us?)
Now I'm on board!
Now go head out west on a radical spree
(How can we ever thank you?)
Someday you'll name it after me!
