We are Tucson Raging Grannies and we’re here to kick some fannies
Met-a-phor-ic-ly, that is……..
If we’re’ go-ing to e-volve some-how we real-ly must re-solve
to sim-ply tell it like it is !
Just be-cause your chest is wool-y you don’t have the right to bull-y
an-y-one that you may see………
And the fact you have a pe-nis does-n’t’ mean you are a gen-ius……
never mind your van-i-ty.
What we-e-e would like to see-ee-ee is our de-mo-cra-cy-y-y
look-ing out for each and ev-ry one…not just the rich… or those with guns!
All the foi-bles in the sys-tem we are cap-a-ble of fix-in
with our e-gos set a-side.
And this stub-born pa-tri-arc-hy will be seen as pure ma-lar-key
so it sim–ply won’t a-bide.
If our health care were pro-vi-ded and each night we could be guid-ed
to a home that’s safe and sound
if all were fed and ed-u-cat-ed pov-er-ty would be a-ba-ted.
THEN peace will a-bound!
To be frank I can-not fath-om this for-ev-er- wide-ning cha-sm…..
between the rich & poor.
If’ you’re tired of all their tac-tics, bla-tant bill-ion-aire the-at-rics,
then let’s choose a diff‘-rent door.
We ha-a-ave abili-tie-ie-ies. To-ge-th-er we can be-e-e
an-y-thing be-yond our wild-est drea-eams. That’s what they fear, or so it seems!
They al-ways flab-ber-gast us with the bills they ram right past us
or do in the dark of night
We are left dis-gus-ted, our pro-pos-als fill-a-bust-ed
They make ev‘-ry-thing a fight!
We’ve got right-wing mach-in-a-tions hold-ing hos-tage our whole na-tion
with their cheat-ing in plain sight.
When all they’ve got is op-po-si-tion, stall-ing tac-tics, and re-sis-tance,
You know that’s not right!
If you’re feel-ing G O Pee-vish just re-call the life of Je-sus.
You can rise a-bove the fray
Though rules are not all gold-en, to this one we are be-hold-en.
Live and let live is the way.
If you-ou-ou’re like mee-ee-ee, it’s diff-i-cult to see-ee
How we’ll move a-hea-ea-ead….. These road-blocks stop us dead!
If we con-tin-ue to be si-lent, it just makes us all com-pli-ant.
THEN they’ll get their way !
So WE must stand to-ge-ther fight-ing for a life that’s bet-ter.
(very slow)-> That’s HOW WE‘LL SAVE THE DAY……… AND THE PLANET!!!
