she drew the gun – resister reprise lyrics
[verse 1]
to the high achievers
hitting gl-ss ceilings
dealing with a sinking feeling
gender outlaws, ignoring decorum
the form bending gender hackers
psychedelic transporters
innersp-ce voyagers
subverting endorsed world orders
traversing reality’s borders
dreamers, i know i’m not the only one
and yes it been lonely but no were not done
disposition, positively utopian
[verse 2]
in food banks, to every carer
the troubled and the crazed
to every colour, blend and shade
‘cos race is man made
and racism is learned
and we have to unlearn it
and understand how our inst-tutions preserve it
in the modern day cotton fields
concealed in the belly of this machine
[verse 3]
to the lovers, whichever form you adore
from monogamy to poly-amor
to the affectionate friends
tenderly bending convention
rejecting the expected
sentimental perspectives
on what love can be
the unexpected directions
make love more collective
love a little bit more
and then maybe eventually
we can make love not war
[verse 4]
the environmental campaigners
the guardians, the ravers
to those less able, the life savers
the nurses and surgeons feeling burdened
but refusing to pull the curtain
on the national health service
souls, using prose to pick holes in status quo’s
’cos a real artist questions whatever she knows
[verse 5]
to the spriritual, whose faith does not dictate the fate of another
to all of my feminist sisters and brothers
the ex-communicated, incarcerated, the ex christians and muslims
questioning mysoginistic customs
at protests and demonstrations
[verse 6]
to the gamers on playstations
because inspiration is thin
& compet-tion is in
just so this world has to make
some of us win
and some of us losers, inequality booming
consumed by a meaningless work epidemic
it’s systemic & we need a movement
collective self-improvement, it’s time
‘cos none but ourselves can free our minds
to recognise the ways the capitalist enterprise is normalized
(outro)
get up up be a resister
get up up be a resister
get up up be a resister
