Hold It Together
Letras
Inmates, this is my prison mess hall
You will sit down, shut up and eat your food
But matron, we are political prisoners and we refuse-
Guards, if one of these girls says another damn word, knock her teeth out
Now eat your food
Don't touch the food
But when will we eat?
Not 'til they release us
What?
Quiet, eat your food
Hunger strike
Strike (guards!)
Strike! Strike!
Strike! Strike!
Strike! Strike! (Guards, shut them up)
Strike! Strike!
You won't last the night
Hold it together, see it through
Don't let despair get the best of you
Push down the pain, thicken your skin
Hold it together, never give in
God bless our great republic
God bless our grand old flag
God bless the land of freedom we hold dear
Let mother serve, we're here to help the war
We'll conserve our food to feed our soldiers even more
'Cause the kitchen is the key to U.S. victory
So mister, won't you please let mother serve?
We'll now take a recess for tea
Are you all right?
I just need air, I'm fine, I'm fine
Perhaps the problem's with your spine
Mollie, would you stop it?
If we fall in line about the war, you'll see
We'll get the President to finally hear our case
So please drop it
But the Carrie I know would never condone this carnage
If you don't like it, go join Alice Paul in jail
Is this about besting Alice Paul or winning the vote?
Which do you care about more?
What a coward you've become
Fight your own war
Hold it together, see it through
Don't let your age get the best of you
Push down the pain, thicken your skin
Hold it together, never get in
Ruza, no
Stay strong for Inez
Get her name out of your mouth
Was killing her not enough for you?
