We Will Survive (sung to the tune of the Gloria Gaynor’s original song)
First I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live
without the pres. by my side
But I spent so many nights
thinking how Bush did me wrong
I grew strong
I learned how to Kerry on
and so we’re back
women for peace
We just walked in to find Bush here
with that dumb look upon his face
We shouldn’t have changed our paper votes
We should have made Bush leave the courts
If we’d have known for just one second
Bush would be back to bother us

Go on now go walk out the door
just turn around now
‘cause you’re not welcome anymore
weren’t you the one who tried
to hurt us with your lies
you think we’d crumble
you think we’d lay down and die
Oh no, not us
We will survive
as long as we know how to vote
we know we will stay alive
We’ve got all our lives to live
We’ve got all our trust to give
and we’ll survive
We will survive

It took all the strength we had
not to feel hopeless
Kept trying hard to mend
our presidential trauma stress
and we spent oh so many nights
just feeling angry for this war
We used to cry
Now we hold our heads up high
and Bush sees us
country anew
We’re not these chained up little sheep
still following you
and so you felt like running twice
and thought that you could win easy
now we’re saving all our votes
for Kerry’s presidency
