00:00Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream.

00:06Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dream.

00:11This song is about taking control.

00:14Your life, your choice.

00:16Don't go with the flow.

00:18You're in charge of your boat.

00:20You've got your hands on the oars.

00:22Or, this song is different.

00:24Because you're a woman.

00:26Row, row, row, beway.

00:28It's about control over your body.

00:30Pro-life, pro-choice.

00:32Two extremes in the same American boat.

00:35Except boats are named after women.

00:37And ours was capsized, overturned.

00:39Despite our boat taking centuries to build.

00:42And having held us for half of one.

00:44Now you are expected to do the holding.

00:46A woman's arms.

00:48Expected to cradle an unwanted child, gently down the stream.

00:55But no stream is always gentle.

00:58In a storm, it can be raining cats and dogs.

01:01But the raining men are the real animals.

01:03Women have always braved troubled waters.

01:06And can't seem to catch a break.

01:08It should be her choice if her water breaks.

01:10Merrily, merrily, merrily, married.

01:13Tying a knot isn't enough for men.

01:15They still want to tie a woman up in legalities.

01:18Tie her, tie her, deny her, her own body.

01:22If life-giving DNA is that important to men.

01:25You'd think they'd have learned to not be dicks.

01:27Life is but a dream.

01:29But who dreams of a life like this?

01:32Where an automatic gun receives more legal protection

01:36than a woman who wants autonomy.

01:43Women are the life-givers.

01:45Just like rivers, fountains, wells.

01:47Offsprings, men assailing women.

01:49Setting sail sets a monstrous precedent for this country.

01:53Without legal protection,

01:55what do men think will happen in the land of the free?

01:58Home of the women.

02:00Home of the women who have braved the monster claw of a clothes hanger.

02:05To remove the proto-life they do not have room in their life for.

02:09Women can't row a boat when the hands on the oars are not our own.

02:13Women can't wade through the waters and arrive safely on the other side.

02:17The flow is flawed, boats been overturned,

02:19and only infant life jackets are available.

02:28Row, row, row the way.

02:31Broadcasted live streams.

02:34Merrily, merrily, merrily married.

02:38Life, a stolen dream.
