 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Every year on the very same date
Jess has to stand up and read out a long list of names
And every name on that list is one name too many
And I dream of the day when she tells us she doesn't have any
Empty handed and smiling from ear to ear
Take a seat Jess, you've nothing to read out this year
Behind every name is a terrible story
Events that fill us with sadness and cause us to worry
At the world we live in and the direction it's taking
And I pray for my daughters and all will see a day when
No papers in hand nothing to see here
Take a seat Jess, you've nothing to read out this year
And will the honourable members please try and remember
That every solution that expects women to do all the changing
Is shifting the focus and blurring the issue
Given your pasts I know it's hard for you
But could you just stop all the victim blaming
Empty handed and smiling from ear to ear
No papers in hand nothing to see here
No clapping allowed but by Christ won't there be such a cheer
When Jess doesn't stand up cos she's nothing to read out that year
When Jess doesn't stand up cos there's nothing to read out that year
