feminist anthems- bring em out.

i'll start- kristen lems
i 1st heard this album in about 77-8. i was a member of the fox valley women's coalition, a single mom, an apprentice carpenter, and a pretty newly minted feminist. for obvious reasons.
one of the members was about to divorce her quite wealthy hubs. we got together at her spectacular house, drank wine and listened to this album and 'in the out door'. a couple of them knew the words. i wouldnt have sung along then if had known the words, but i would like to propose singing our lil hearts out in this moment.
bougie, i know, but...

I don't know if you would call it an anthem.

Vagabon - Every Woman



Morning starts with a pill
And didn't reach it's peak
All the women I meet are tired
They just kick up their feet prior
To my sittin' down
Sittin' down, yeah

I belong to no one
You tried hard to be mine
I won't ask permission from you
We reserve the right to be full
When we're on our own
No, not alone

Morning starts with a ban
And it'll reach it's end
All the women I meet are fired up
They get ready to kill with their love
No, we're no afraid of the war we brought on
And we're steady holding down the fort

Evening starts when I'm done
It won't be long before
All the women I meet are tired
They just kick up their feet prior
'Cause we're not afraid of the war we brought on
And we're steady while holding you all
