Lyrics
Women around the world at work
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In a hundred wars across the earth,
Men and guns are thought to prove their worth,
Women stay behind and grow the food,
Placing soldiers in a dangerous mood.
Women around the world at work,
Working, working...
There's a man who must be sixty-five,
Makes his living running other lives,
Tells them when they can't and when they can,
They're so busy they don't give a damn.
Women around the world at work...
Working, working...
In The Daily X, May '81,
Back-page human interest story runs:
"GIRLS OF TWELVE STILL SOLD FOR LOVE TODAY",
Just so men can have their bloody way.
Women around the world at work...
