Free The Lady

She was more than a mistress

He made her his waitress

And ruled her with strings

He pulled at his will.

Like a silent partner in a growing business

She was always informed but never really seen.

And her days dragged

And her nights they were bad.

She was used and abused

In her bedroom

But she stuck to the script

Like a well paid actress

But her role is arranged

And it's time for a change!

So open up your eyes!

Your life is but a lie!

Free the lady!

Free the lady!

Free the lady!

Free the lady!

Right away!

She was never a queen,

Though her man was a king

Who rambled and gambled,

Free like the wind.

Whilst his wife spent her life

Lost in the kitchen,

Her joy was the children

And the reason she remained

So open up your eyes!

Your life is but a lie!

Free the lady!

Free the lady!

Free the lady!

Free the lady!

Right away!

Right away!

Right away!

Do it today!

And open up your eyes!

Your life is but a lie!

Free the lady!

Free the lady!

Free the lady!

Free the lady!

Right away!

Free the lady!

Right away!

Free the lady!

Right away!

Free the lady!

Right away!

Free the lady!

Right away!
