Crisis Video (MV)

Gather 'round, girls
Let me tell you about the crisis that is here
At the end I almost see our final victory
I know that we don't all believe that it'll be what it'll be
But a crisis 'tis indeed, like a boulder gathering speed

'Cause if we fail to act upon it
Might mean the chance has been lost
And we will have to wait to win

It's 1916, we're talking war and battle cries
Oh, women dry your eyes, you gotta rise up and fight
You may be troubled and bewildered and stricken with grief
But you can solve it, fix these knotty problems, we try to breathe

'Cause if we fail to act upon it
Might mean the chance has been lost
And we will have to wait to win

Oh, America, look up at that north star
One day it'll come down
The time has come to shout aloud
In every city and village and town
The woman's hour has struck
The woman's hour is now

If we fail to act upon it
Might mean the chance has been lost

There was a man in West Virginia
Someone asked him what he thought
He said, "We've been keeping women down so long, it would feel so queer to not"
If someone asked his wife the same question, here's what she'd say
"We've been down so long, we've gotta stay this way"
Therein lies the movement of those who say, nay

Oh, America, look up
The star is getting nearer
It's time to shout aloud to everybody who can hear us
The woman's hour has struck
The woman's hour is now
The woman's hour is here
