#1. Tune I’se the B’ye
We’re the women who did the work
So men could get the credit-
We said “leave it all to us”
And wish we’d never said it.
Politics was not for us
We left it to our spouses
But NOW we know that women’s place
II Parliamentary Houses
#2. Tune If You’re Happy and You Know It
If you can’t be bothered voting, think again
If you can’t be bothered voting, think again
(slowly) Keep in mind that its worth noting
If good folk don’t go voting
(slowly) Some toads we’d all reject will reject will prob’ly win
.
#3. Tune Side by Side
Oh… we’re just a gaggle of –Grannies
Urging you off of your –fannies
We’re telling you straight
It’s really your fate
To change your world
Sooooo… We may be a gaggle of– Grannies
But we’re getting off our—fannies
We’re telling you now
Your Grannies know how
We want YOU to vote!
#4. Tune It’s Raining, It’s Pouring
(slowly) It’s raining, it’s pouring
E-lec-tions are never BOR-ing!
GO to the poll; Put x in the hole,
And FEEL good in the morning!
#5. Tune Ants Go Marching
The Grans go marching two by two
Oh yah! Oh yah!
The Grans go marching two by two
Oh yah! Oh yah!
The Grans go marching two by two
We are GOING to vote, and so should you
Let’s ALL march down to the polls (pause, face the audience)
(Slowly) We NEED to be outta the rain.
(Spoken) Political rain, that is. Ya’ll go and vote now!
