Robert B. Sherman - Sister Suffragette lyrics

Mrs. Winnifred Banks: 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 daughters' daughters will adore us And they'll sing in grateful chorus: "Well done, Sister Suffragette!" From Kensington to Billingsgate, one hears the restless cries From ev'ry corner of the land: "Womankind, arise!" Political equality and equal rights with men Take heart, for Missus Pankhurst has been clamped 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! Shoulder to shoulder into the fray! Our daughters' daughters will adore us And they'll sing in grateful chorus: "Well done! Well done! Well done, Sister Suffragette!"
