It must be difficult for a woman
to leave home
and contribute
but it was expected.
It must be difficult for a woman
to wait
so as not to be
one of those girls
It must be difficult for a woman
to choose
to do the right thing
But she can do it.

Clickity clickity clickity click
the rollerblades go across the cobble stone
The roses thrive in the railway yard
Clickity clickity clickity click
a woman walks with purpose
The roses grow in numbers
Clickity Clickity Clickity Click
a gun runs out of ammo
The roses get crushed by an oncoming train
Clickity Clickity Clickity Click
a teacher grows bored with her pen
The perfect Rosie will be patriotic
Her uniform iconic in red, white, and blue
The perfect Rosie will be efficient
Her bicep as strong as her constitution
The perfect Rosie will be pretty
She is a woman after all
