Versuri-versuri.ro > Versuri Litera M > Versuri Marie-Lynn Hammond > Unknown - Period Piece (The Rag Song)Well we all know our poor planet is quite close to disappearing
under tons and tons of poisonous manmade shit
and ecologists are daily trying hard to find solutions
so together we can do our best to rescue it
weve got ozone holes and PCBs, acid rain and DDT,
toxins and dioxins and nuclear waste
and now some clever souls discovered yet another problem
though some think that to discuss it is in quite poor taste
But that has never stopped me in the past so I will tell you
that it has to do with women and our physiology
and those tampons, pads, and plastic applicators that are
monthly blocking sewers, clogging landfills and polluting the sea.
so now someone has invented a reusable pad made of
cotton rather like the rags of grandmothers day
and I guess you stash the soiled ones in a bag inside your purse
until youre home and have a chance to rinse the bloody mess away
Well my head says, oh how noble but my gut says not another thing
Im supposed to find the time for when my times in short supply
I mean I compost, I recycle, I keep worms that eat my garbage
I sew little bags to carry home the bulk foods that I buy
and we women still do more than half the housework not to mention
stuff engendered by our gender that you men will never know
like morning sickness, thirty-hour labours, hysterectomies,
caesarians and killer cramps and heavy monthly flow
But we really must do something cuz were talking those big E words
now Environment, Ecology, Earth in her time of need
besides giving up disposables can only bring relief, I mean
its got so I feel guilty every single time I bleed
yes Im ready for reusable pads on one condition -
that the labour be divided fairly and therefore since
we women have no choice ab
