If you’re a woman, whoop-dee-doo!
Today’s
the day that’s just for you
To
celebrate the role you play
In
life, despite unequal pay.
There’s
surely been some progress made,
Perhaps
deserving a parade,
For
you can go to school and vote,
Run
for office – win and gloat.
You
can own a home or store –
They
can’t stop you anymore.
Join
the army, lead a band
Wed
your girlfriend, buy some land.
Host
a talk show, get real rich;
Run
a business, make a pitch.
Write
a memoir, practice law,
Protest
‘til your throat is raw.
Still,
you aren’t equal yet
For
some still see you as a threat
And
if your rights held equal sway,
You
wouldn’t need this special day!
