The Women’s Suffrage Movement Song (My Shot Parody)
We’re not going to waste our votes!
We’re not going to waste our votes!
We’re not you’re pretty little damsels,
We can throw what we can handle,
And we’re not going to waste our votes!
I'mma get a scholarship to Bryn College
Our education is important, tho ya try and doubt it
The problem is we got a lot of brains, but nail polish
I gotta lot to put in-to words,
Call me fanny fern, I’m ac-knowledged,
We’re “fragile” “little” diamonds, but a 10 on Mohs
Denied study can’t stop us from reaching- the un-reach-able
Call us Athena, you can’t control-her
The patriarchy tries to enfold her, can’t smold-her
Pull the curtain, see her workin’, on her shoulder’s every burden
Her every impact’s always blurred in, pioneer like Anne Boleyn.
Our plan is to get voting rights for all
Our impact won’t be small, and let me tell yall
We are the—
W, O M, E N, S Suffrage truly is the best
We wanna elect our officials potentially
Meanwhile, the govern-men-t ignores us relentlessly
Exceptionally with taxes, or mothering
“But you can have a job!” is what they all told me
They won’t ever offer us, our rights for free,
So now, we’ll rebel to escape this pe-ni-ten-tiary.
Remember we, (we say for our memories)
We’re apt to go to school for our doctorate degrees
We will fight for our rights, like some busy bees,
Finally, you'll witness OUR democracy
We’re not going to waste our votes!
We’re not going to waste our votes!
We’re not pretty little damsels,
We can throw what we can handle,
And we’re not going to waste our votes!
