about

The militant suffragette movement was stopped dead in its tracks by the outbreak of the war. Yet, those most intimately involved in the movement suspected that women could never return to their utterly subordinate position in society after it was all over. They were right. This song is a tribute to those incredible women who fought (and won) their own war.

lyrics

we feed the pit men
we bury our children
we stand at your cauldrons
till we are raw and bleeding

up to the fortress
strike up the chorus
the future adores us
and the past is fading

the ring's under her pillow
she's climbing out the window
to join her sisters on the run
let's take the devil down
let's shake the devil down
we'll throw the devil down
daughters of the sun

here's what you're reaping
once veiled and sleeping
now she is creeping
with the blood moon rising

destiny spoken
when the road is open
hearts have awoken
and the world’s enticing



she'll break your fine illusions
make war and confusion
join her sisters on the run
let's take the devil down
let's shake the devil down
we'll throw the devil down
daughters of the sun

now guns are waking
armies are shaking
we're theirs for the taking
for divide and conquer

she'll man the stations
keep your vocations
break with elation
only wild and stronger

the ring's under her pillow
she's climbing out the window
to join her comrades on the run
let's take the devil down
let's shake the devil down
we'll take the devil down
daughters of the sun
