Sister Suffragette Lyrics

Sister Suffragette lyrics

We're clearly soldiers in petticoats

And dauntless crusaders for women's votes

Though we adore men individually

We agree that as a group they're rather stupid



Cast off the shackles of yesterday

Shoulder to shoulder into the fray

Our daughter's daughter's will adore us

And they'll sing in grateful chorus

"Well done, Sister Suffragette"



From Kensington to Billingsgate one hears the restless cries

From every corner of the land, womankind arise

Political equality and equal rights with men

Take heart for Mrs. Pankhurst has been clapped in irons again



No more the meek and mild subservients we

We're fighting for our rights militantly

Never you fear



So cast off the shackles of yesterday

And shoulder to shoulder into the fray

Our daughter's daughter's will adore us

And they'll sing in grateful chorus

"Well done, well done, well done, Sister Suffragette"
