What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
A visionary pause in the cycle
2
When she refused to buy or sell
3
When the daughters of perfect wives
4
Said there must be more sacrifice
5
Needed more than symbolic change
6
More than silent wasting away
7
In factories and sterile marriages
8
He was God, she was powerless
9
With a brick for every year of life
10
She set out for the house of lies
11
The old boys' club under siege
12
His lordship cowered under his seat
13
Called for brandy and reinforcements
14
Blasted away at every movement
15
Close to breaking down the door
16
Past thick blue line and stupid laws
17
Black Friday left her bruised and stubborn
18
One brick from winning the struggle
19
Rapunzel hacked at the ivory tower
20
Asquith quickly rose to the hour
21
Appealed to patriotism, oily smiles
22
Gave nothing, called it compromise
23
Gauging the situation perfectly
24
Said ladies, ladies, listen to me
25
Nineteen fourteen, we're on the brink of war
26
Pick up a flag, drop your cause
27
Your targets are counter-revolutionary
28
Take my hand in democracy
29
Here's a piece of paper
30
You're officially free
31
Here's a list of instructions
32
For you to obey
33
And here's sharp knife
34
To cut your own throat
35
Small sacrifice in return for a vote
36
Whispered word in Pankhurst's ear
37
Visions of the first woman peer
38
Led women down the garden path
39
And into the arms of the enemy
40
Jail and force-feeding, waster martyrdom
41
Sold her songs for the national anthem
42
Slotted the smile back neatly into place
43
Served refreshments
44
At the end of the race
45
All demands reduced to a joke
46
X marks the plague, abandon hope
47
Butlers still pouring brandy for the rich
48
Excuse me pass me the privilege
49
A woman's voice, the state's idea
50
Same vested interests, same dirty deals
51
Currie and Williams immersed in the times
52
Examples to keep the rest in line
53
Currie and Williams two of a kind
54
Examples to keep the rest in line
55
Absolute power
56
Absolute power
57
Ladies, ladies, listen to me
