Amendment

Wouldn't it be nice if
 We had an amendment
 To give civil rights to
 Women
 To once and for all just
 Really lay it down from
 A point of view of
 Women
 I know what you're thinking
 That's just redundant
 Chicks got it good now
 They can almost be president
 But worker against worker
 Time and time again
 As the rich use certain issues as a tool
 And when I said we need the ERA cause I'm a fool.
 It's cause without it nobody can get away
 With anything cruel
 You don't need to go far like
 Just over to canada
 To feel the height and sense of
 Live and let live
 What is it about americans
 Like so many pitbulls
 Trained to attack them
 To never give
 We gotta come down abortion
 Put it down in the books for good
 As central to the civil rights of women
 Make diversity acceptable
 Make it finally understood
 Through the civil rights of women
 And if you don't like abortion
 Don't have an abortion
 Teach your children
 How they can avoid them
 But don't treat all women
 Like they are your children
 Compassion has many faces
 Many names
 And if men can kill
 And be decorated instead of blamed
 When a woman called onto mother
 Can choose to refrain
 And contrary to ions(?)
 Of oldtime religion
 Your body is your only true cominion
 Nature is not here to serve you
 Or at any cost to preserve you
 That's just some preacherman's oldtime opinion
 Life is sacred
 Life is all so profane
 A woman's life
 It must be hers to name
 Let an amendment
 Put this brutal game to rest
 Trust women will still take you to their breast
 Trust women will always do their best
 Trust that our differences make us stronger, not less
 In this amendment
 Shall be family structure shall be free
 To be the right to civil union
 If we take unions of all kinds
 Unions of hearts and minds
 To give society communion
 Let's do more than tolerate
 Let gay and straight resonate
 And emanate all things human
 With equal rights and
 Equal protection
 Intolerance finally ruined
 And then there's the kids rights
 They'll naturally be on board
 A thunnel through which
 Womens' lives are poured
 Our family is so big and we're all so very small
 Let a web of relationship be laid over it all
 Over the ... Of power piled up into the sky
 Over the illusion of autonomy on which it relies
 Over any absolute of nature that's not surprised(?)
