the rogers sisters

{ILYA}

there's nothing rich folks love me
than going downtown and slumming it with the poor
they pull up in their carriages and gawk
at the students in the common just to watch them talk
take Georgie Rogers, the woman is loaded
uh-oh
but little does she know that her daughters Lilly, Clementine, Vivie
sneak into the city just to watch all the guys at

{CHAR}

work, work

{ILYA}

there's nothing like summer in the city
someone in a rush next to someone lookin' pretty
excuse me, miss, I know it's not funny
but your perfume smells like your mama's got money
why you slummin in the city in your fancy heels
you searchin' for an urchin who can give you ideals?

{CLEMENTINE}

Ilya, you disgust me

{ILYA}

ah, so you've discussed me
I'm a trust fund, baby, you can trust me

{CLEMENTINE}

I've been reading common sense by Thomas Paine
so men say that I'm intense or I'm insane
you want a revolution? I want a revelation
so listen to my declaration

{ROGERS SISTERS}

we hold these truths to be self evident that all men are created equal

{CLEMENTINE}

and when I meet Thomas Jefferson

{CHAR}
(oh!)

imma compel him to include women in the sequel

and we just happen to be
