SING IT to the tune of Deep in the Heart of Texas

The fascist right
Flex their might
Push women back in time

Outlaw our choice
Silence our voice
Push women back in time

Angry men who hate
Fear for their fate
Push women back in time

Cowardly fools
Change the rules
Push women back in time

Think we don’t know
Who runs the show?
Push women back in time.

Just don’t forget
The suffragettes
Can’t push us back in time
