"days of the theocracy" (and note that this was written in 1979--we hoped by now this would

(be merely a bad memory)

Written and recorded in 1979.

Days of the Theocracy
(Kristin Lems)
2007-07-15
words and music by Kristin Lems c 2007 Kleine Ding Music (BMI)
.
1. First they fight abortion,
birth control is next,
Then comes sex if you’re not married,
finally, out goes sex!
Put the prayers back in the schools,
install "parochiaid,"
Allow for corporal punishment,
and then you got it made!

Chorus:
We’re going back, back to the good ole days
When men were really men and women knew their place
Back, back a couple of centuries
And welcome back the days of the theocracy

2. The family is so holy, there must be no divorce
And if a wife is not content,
she must adjust, of course
And if he’s forced to beat her,
it’s all for her own good
She must know what her limits are,
as any woman should.

(chorus)

3. The next to go is daycare,
it’s all a commie plot!
What could be more fulfilling
than a child, wanted or not?
A woman’s world is housework,
God wanted it that way
A salaried job degrades her
since she never works for pay



(chorus)

4. They teach us women’s lot
is "love honor and obey"
And while their crusty notions
seem like jokes to us today,
They’re sitting in the Capitol,
they’re voting on our lives
If we don’t stop them now,
our freedom will not long survive!

No going back..to the bad ole days...
(chorus)
let's go ahead, ahead for future centuries,
And build a world that’s based on true democracy
And build a world that’s based on true equality ~ Ah – person!
