Shadow Over Sisterland Lyrics
There's a shadow
Over sisterland
With a Smith and Thomas
Pointed at her head
Money and authority
Have their own way of talking
When it comes to the man
Versus what the woman saidSomewhere sometimes
A woman lives the memory
Of the little girls pain
Dragging through the mind
Everyday a compromise
Just do the time
Silence is a mask
When nothing can be said
Goddess brought the chalice
Dominator made the blade
God slew the serpent
And the woman's bed was madeTethers of chains
Tethers of jewels
Economic bondage
Runs by those rules
The law of Justice
Are business decisions
Gender and class
Cut with surgical precisions
Religious definition
With politics of man
Church and State together hand in hand
There's a shadow
Over sisterland
Mother Earth
As goddess is woman
Meets the god of men
Violent prayers
Rationalizing madness
Partnership comes to an end
Landlords
Landlords
Landlords
Ownership prevails
Ruling class industrial male
There's a shadow
Over sisterland
There's a shadow
