letra de deeds not words - fantastically great women

[emmeline pankhurst, spoken]
it’s 1903
and thanks to me
the uk strives towards equality

[emmeline pankhurst, sung]
acknowledging the poverty of women’s opportunity
necessitates a need for taking action with alacrity
the future’s in our hands
so, make your mark and stand with me

[emmeline pankhurst, spoken]
or to put it a little more simply

[emmeline pankhurst, sung]
we need deeds not words
ladies, if you wanna be heard
we need blood, sweat, tears
need to find a way to face our fears
all these years, we’ve been rejected
with no say in who’s elected
for what we deserve
we need deeds (deeds, deeds) not
whoa, deeds not words! (hеy!)
whoa, deeds not words! (hey!)
we’re thе suffragettes
soldiers in petticoats
there’s never been a better bunch for getting out the vote
i’ll never let you down
i’m pushing out the boat
if they don’t like it, that’s too bad, i’ll shove it down their throat!
we don’t want your sympathy
save the condescending talk, oh, please!
what we need

we need deeds not words
ladies, if you wanna be heard
we need blood, sweat, tears
got to find a way to face our fears
there’s no way we’ll be subjected (ooh)
with no say in who’s elected (ah)
hit ‘em where it hurts
we need deeds not
whoa, deeds not words! (hey!)
whoa, deeds not words! (hey!)

won’t sit complaining
it’s plain that we must take the lead
when i get chained up to their railings
they’ll be taking heed
a little blood is lost
for every battle won
but that’s the cost, i guess i’m what you call a hooligan!
we cannot simply ask for rights
we must be ready for the fight
so, take my hand and hold on tight (let me through, let me through!)
listen, i’m done waiting
the system is suffocating
gonna break every law
if it ensures that we make ’em
i’ve gone bound up my scars
these prisons can’t hold my bars
i’ll be spittin’ ‘til i’m winnin’
and we claim what is ours

d-d-d-deeds not words! (hey!)
d-d-deeds not words! (hey!)
d-d-d-deeds not words! (hey!)
d-d-d-d-d-deeds not words!

[men, spoken overlapping]
women know nothing (oh, yes! agreed!) (here, here!)
women are affected by gusts and waves of sentiments!
women know nothing of commerce and industry!
women control and worry us enough already!
women are extraordinarily impressionable!
women know nothing! (nothing, nothing…)

[emmeline pankhurst, sung]
did you hear them call women inferior?
year after year, i’m growing wearier
it’s clear beneath their manly exteriors
it’s all hot air from their (from their) posteriors
oh!
deeds not words
shout it out ‘cross the nation!
deeds not words
from suffrage shall come salvation!
deeds not words
i won’t have it debated!
deeds not words
ladies, let’s get liberated!

deeds not words
shout it out ‘cross the nation!
deeds not words
from suffrage shall come salvation!
deeds not words
i won’t have it debated!
deeds not words
ladies, let’s get liberated!
whoa, deeds not words! (hey!)
whoa, deeds not words! (hey!)
whoa, deeds not words! (hey!)
whoa, deeds not words!
