We are the suffragettes Think you know some fierce girls? You ain't seen noting yet... A less heard Milly Fawcett Founder of our cause Started the battle for our rights Argued the government should change the laws Here is how she stated our pli-i-ght How come we can't vote for rules That we have to obey When we work and pay taxes to-o-o-o? Parliament's reaction was: "Oh do go away!" How dare they dis the suffrage crew... Suffragettes sing we're gonna do this thing Peaceful protests started in 1903 Got no reaction, needed drastic action Got a new leader, Emmeline Pankhurst (That's me) Burst in to Parliament, shouting votes for women Actions though were shocking and new Chained ourselves to palace gates, tension was brimming Our name now WSPU Burned down judges, smashed up shops, attacked MPs The result: we were thrown in jail-ai-ai-ail This made us more determined as you'll come to see Think we'd give up fighting? Hey, fail... Suffragettes sing together we can win In prison we protested and even hunger-striked Men still said no, but we just said yo! You won't stop us now Miss Davison, please take the mic... We became more extreme Derby Day, June 13 In front of king and queen Committed sacrifice supreme Crept unseen between the team And crowds watching the race And threw myself under a horse To try and make our case Became a famous martyr How did men react? "We can't give women votes If they're so stupid they'd do THAT!" Seemed our cause was lost when world war came along Our suffragette reaction Was to wave our protest goodbye, farewell, so long Took patriotic action-on-on Put down our banners saying 'give us votes' Instead supported the men's fi-i-i-ight We worked to help them win the war So guess what they said... "OK girls, you were right!" Suffragettes sing we've done it, ding ding At last those men can see they should treat us the same So take note that women can vote And it's thanks to those who fought in the suffragette name...
