Take me to the nunnery
Take me to the convent
I want to be a learned wom-un
To be so, I must be a nun
Bring me to my home
Bring me to my house
I want to be a free wom-and
To be so, I must have a husband
***
I want to be a wom-an
For that, I must wed
Cast me on an island
Cast me on the shore
I want to be a strong wo-moan
To be so, I must live alone
***
Relieve me of my anxiety
Relieve me of my fear
I want to be a good woman
To be so, I must take action
I want to be an independent woman
For that, I must NOT wed
Author's note: I was trying to imagine what a suffragette might have written... I hope you enjoy
