| Don’t believe that our minds have changed
|
| And our basic demands haven’t stayed the same
|
| We still have a debt that we need to repay
|
| To the suffragettes who’ve paved our way
|
| I know you like to think that times have changed
|
| But we’re not represented in parliament or pay
|
| Our voices are lost in a masquerade
|
| And now we have to fight to have our say
|
| But if you’re never here, never here to say
|
| Well, a committee doesn’t listen to an absent voice
|
| Nor do they sit and wait
|
| But if you’re never here, never here to say
|
| Well, a committee doesn’t listen to an absent voice
|
| Nor do they sit and wait
|
| There are a million reasons why we need to talk;
|
| We can organise and sympathise and gather our thoughts
|
| Some alarms don’t sound in 4/4 time
|
| Some problems aren’t within our peripheral lines
|
| I would like to know if you’re still there and if so
|
| Can we talk about those plans that we had for tomorrow?
|
| Oh-oh, oh-oh
|
| Until we try we won’t know
|
| But if you’re never here, never here to say
|
| Well, a committee doesn’t listen to an absent voice
|
| Nor do they sit and wait
|
| But if you’re never here, never here to say
|
| Well, a committee doesn’t listen to an absent voice
|
| Nor do they sit and wait
|
| But if you’re never here, never here to say
|
| Well, a committee doesn’t listen to an absent voice
|
| Nor do they sit and wait
|
| But if you’re never here, never here to say
|
| Well, a committee doesn’t listen to an absent voice
|
| Nor do they sit and wait |
