Animaniacs, Rob Paulsen, Jess Harnell, Tress MacNeille - Suffragette City lyrics

It's insane for us to think today
That woman used to have no say
In matters of the government
The line of thinking usually went

You do not need a ballot
To finish your needlepoint

Even though men called them gorgons and
Their corsets crushed their organs
Suffragettes, they rocked the boat to help
Us win the right to vote

Suffragette roll call!

Elizabeth Cady Stanton susan B anthony!
Sojourner Truth

We marched on Washington we fought the fight
We're independent women who
Demanded equal rights!

Thank you, ladies! Thanks to you I can vote!

(Murmuring)

Come again? Are you kidding me?!

I've just been informed that cartoons don't
Have the right to vote!
This won't stand! This won't fly!
No animation without representation!

We toast 100 years of women
Voting in our nation
But as a disenfranchised toon
I seek emancipation
Saluting my foremothers in
Star-spangled petticoats
I respectfully submit it's time to
Give cartoons the vote

Let's all march on Washington
Let's fight the fight
I might only be a drawing
But I still want equal rights

Come on! March! March for your rights!

March! March! March! For
Your cartoony rights! March for your rights!
March! March! March! For
Your cartoony rights!
Cartoons! You gotta march, march, march!
March for your rights come on, everybody!
All together now!
Robots, monsters, Tiny Toons
Sylvester, talking cars
Ducks, dogs, bunnies, Elmer Fudd
Whatever these guys are!
Roadrunner, Pinky, Taz, the Brain
Wile E coyote!

It's time to band together
Time to give cartoons the vote
Don't be afraid to speak out!
Tell us about the issues that affect you!

I've been out of work for six
Months due to a mallet-related injury!

It'd be great to have a stunt
Double for all the cartoon violence

Excellent! Let us tell the big
Wigs how we really feel!

Attention, Washington!
Every day, we're smashed and whacked

Every day, we're smashed and whacked

It's time to take our anvils back!

It s time to take our anvils back!

A pie for you, a pie for me

A pie for you, a pie for me

This seltzer sprays equality

This seltzer sprays equality

We're coming to you live with reports of a
Tiny dog puppy lady singing at Congress

We besieged the legislatures to
Secure our zany stature
Squirrelly tail entwined with Tweety wing
Hear our voices as we sing!

Aye! Aye! Aye! Aye!

And so, on the eve of the 100th anniversary
Of women securing the right to vote
Cartoon characters today have
Successfully achieved that very same right
I think I speak for everyone when
I say god help us

I'm Dot Warner, and I approve of this message

Th-th-th-th-th-that's Democracy Folks!
