paroles de chanson They Gave Me a Lamp - Haiku Salut , Public Service Broadcasting

If you could get the women into one,
You could get them involved in one thing,
You could see them in this other light

And then they started questioning other aspects of their life
Not just relating to themselves, or, at yourself
'Politics was just something that wouldn't affect me'
But politics is life, and everything to do with it affects you
Directly or indirectly

A lot of women weren't as fortunate as me
They weren't taught to wire a plug
They were taught to make a sponge
They weren't taught how to change a wheel on a car
They were taught the proper way to iron a white shirt
You can't climb up this tree, you're a girl
You can't come with us 'cause you're a girl
And it made me damned determined to do it
And I suppose it sort of stuck with me
So I-I didn't see any reason why I shouldn't be out there
Doing what I was doing, why I shouldn't work with them
Why I shouldn't be in the support group
I think a lot of women found their feet

I've been in front, I have never give in, I have never sat back
And I have never refused anybody, and I am very proud of it
And I'll be proud to look back on it
