Summary

Put a Woman in Charge

Way back when, in the beginning of time,

Way back when man made the fire then the wheel,

Went from a horse to an automobile,

He said “The world is mine;” he took oceans and sky,

He set borders, built walls – he won’t stop till he owns it all,

And here we are standing on the brink of disaster.

Enough is enough is enough is enough.

I know the answer – Put a woman in charge.

The time has come – We’ve got to turn this world around.

Call the mothers, call the daughters,

We need the sisters of mercy now – she’ll be a hero, not a fool.

She’s got the power to change the rules.

She’s got something that men don’t have –

She is kind and she understands.

So let the ladies do what they were born to do.

Raise the vibration and make a better place for me and you.

Put a woman in charge.

We’re gonna feel the magic when the girls take over;

It’s gonna be fantastic – we need more women in charge.

Put a woman in charge.
