Horrible Histories - World War Two Girls Lyrics
We're girlies from the 30s, wash the dishes, scrub the floor,When all of a sudden our hubbies went to warDid you think we'd shrink in England's needy hour?Yeah what?Course not!Cos we got Girl power!Our men are fighting World War TwoBut we're not gonna boo hoo hooIt's our World War Two too girlsPlenty we can do girlsWe're the World War Two girlsOur war begins right here!I make weapons in the factory, drill and bolt and screwWith rules so strict they even time you when you're on the looMaking bombs and bullets, means I'm always muckyI've put my name down for a bath – I'll get one if I'm lucky!There is no job that we can't doIt wasn't long till our roles grewYour country needs you girlsArmy navy too, girlsWe're the World War Two girlsThis is our career...I am aPlane-fixin', plain-speakin',Photo-takin', code-breakin',Air force missRadar-mannin', lorry-drivin',Weather-guessin', foreign-spyin',I do all thisI took the role of land girl while our men fight far awayFarming on the home front, helping save the dayTending crops and animals, manual labour hurtsIn the field my uniform's this scratchy tie and shirtWhen World War Two is over thoughWe'll be proud cos we will knowThanks to us is due girlsCame to the rescue girlsWe're the World War Two girlsOriginal Girl Power
