The lyrics to this song were written by Scottish Poet, singer and musician Ivor Cutler. The music was we-written by Michael Albert Music Group. We had made this our mantra as a band. Closing out each set by inviting a friend to come up and sing it with us. A hope filled meditation on the future. Everybody should be singing this to themselves. Everyone should have their own version. Sing it with intention. We were lucky enough to have the incredibly prolific Felicia Douglass join us onstage one night at the Hideout. We are lucky enough to have her join us again, from a distance, on this recording.
lyrics
WOMEN OF THE WORLD
YOU MUST TAKE OVER NOW
BECAUSE IF YOU DO NOT
THE WORLD WILL SURELY
COME TO AN END
AND IT WON'T TAKE LONG
WOMEN OF THE WORLD
YOU MUST TAKE OVER NOW
MEN HAVE HAD THEIR SHOT
NOW LOOK AT WHAT WE'VE GOT
