War Measure (feat. The Knights & The Westerlies)

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!
