[00:00.61]manhattan is an island
[00:01.72]like the women who are
[00:03.51]surrounded by children in the car
[00:05.47]surrounded by cars
[00:06.88]
[00:07.13]or manhattan was a project
[00:09.63]that projected the worst of mankind
[00:12.10]first one and then the other
[00:14.32]has made its mark on my mind
[00:16.19]
[00:19.03]it's sixty years later
[00:21.12]near the hypo-center of the a-bomb
[00:23.49]i'm standing in the middle of hiroshima
[00:25.57]watching a twisted old eucalyptus tree wave
[00:29.35]one of the very few lives
[00:30.67]that survived and lives on
[00:32.67]remembering the day
[00:34.02]it was suddenly thousands of degrees
[00:36.02]in the shade
[00:37.52]
[00:37.77]and what all of nature gave birth to
[00:39.45]terror took in a blinding raid
[00:42.86]with the kind of pain
[00:44.02]it would take cancer so many years just to say
[00:47.52]
[00:57.50]oh to grow up gagged and blindfolded
[00:59.96]a great big mans world in your little girls head
[01:03.00]the voice of the great mother drowned out
[01:04.87]in the constant honking haunting
[01:06.36]the accident scene up ahead
[01:11.30]oh to grow up hypnotized
[01:12.35]and then try to shake yourself awake
[01:15.31]cause you can sense what has been lost
[01:18.49]cause you can sense what is at stake
[01:20.46]
[01:22.80]yeah it took me a few years
[01:24.08]to catch on that those days
[01:25.35]i catch everyone's eye
[01:26.88]correspond with those nights of the month
[01:29.55]when the moon gleans like an egg in the sky
[01:32.30]and men are using a sense they don't even know
[01:34.71]they have just to watch me walk by
[01:36.99]and me, i'm supposed to be sensible,
[01:39.21]leave my animal outside to cry
[01:42.99]but when all of nature conspires
[01:44.47]to make me her glorious whore
[01:46.93]it's cause in my body
[01:48.03]i hold the secret recipe of precisely
[01:51.60]what life is for
[01:52.65]
[01:52.84]and the patriarchy that looks to shame me for
[01:55.24]it is the same one making war
[01:57.43]and i've said too much already
[01:59.49]but i'll tell you something more
[02:04.08]to split yourself in two
[02:06.46]is just the most radical thing you can do
[02:08.59]so girl if that shit ain't up to you,
[02:10.40]then you simply are not free
[02:12.62]cause from the sunlight on my hair
[02:14.44]to which eggs i grow to term
[02:16.72]to the expression that i wear,
[02:18.91]all i really own is me
[02:21.20]
[02:22.82]i mean to split yourself in two
[02:25.05]is just the most radical thing you can do
[02:27.42]goddess forbid that little adam
[02:29.97]should grow so jealous of eve
[02:32.88]
[02:34.95]and in the face of the great farce
[02:38.63]of the nuclear age
[02:40.01]feminism ain't about equality,
[02:42.57]it's about reprieve
[02:43.82]
