Rosie was at home Baking cookies in the sun A bun in the oven But there’s a hole in Arizona Rock n’ rolled Oklahoma Grey ladies need you Rosie, Uncle Sam’s on the phone He’s sayin’, your time has come Rosie, trade in your apron Squeeze that rivet gun Dancing in gingham Chairman’s singing Some Enchanted Evening Go dump that highball Snuff out the menthol Hold the tuna cassero-o-ole Rosie, Uncle Sam’s on the phone He’s sayin’, your time has come Rosie, trade in your apron Squeeze that rivet gun We can do it Shakin’ bakin’ Bombers makin’ B-17’s Rolling off the line We did it It’s our time Wonder women Flying By ‘44 not normal To operate a drill Back home to your mixer Housewife drudgery Fuck Barbie, Fuck Me Feminist porn party Third, fourth wave Equal pay, don’t say gay ERA di-vor-cées Grabbin’ pussy Riot grrrl Gender, Tumblr rape culture Whisper Roe V Wade’s over Rosie, Uncle Sam’s on the phone He’s sayin’, your time has come Rosie, trade in your apron Squeeze that rivet gun Rosie! Your time has come Rosie! Your time has come Rosie! Squeeze that rivet gun Rosie! Rosie! Rosie! Our time Where has it gone?

Sleeping Until The Wave Came 05:04
lyrics

I saw a wind vane In the shape of a grim face Pointing forward To an oasis Familiar to me now Damning somehow Gone in an instant My other life evaporates I was sleeping until the wave came Dreaming about what might have been Sleeping until the wave came Cold sea arresting me to say Come back before you slip away Come back before you slip away I saw a lighthouse’ Weary beam bending down Nobly from a bluff Its cause overdrawn False light dooming me All who can see Stirring it’s gone Left to shine on I was sleeping until the wave came Dreaming about what might have been Sleeping until the wave came Cold sea arresting me to say Come back before you slip away Come back before you slip away I saw an ice block Shimmering in scotch Old man’s head in hands Squeezing tear drops His brain diseased Longing for release My penance to watch Suddenly it stops I was sleeping until the wave came Dreaming about what might have been Sleeping until the wave came Cold sea arresting me to say Come back before you slip away Come back before you slip away I saw a rusted mine Washed up by the tide Unruptured live relic Raging inside Go on it taunts Blow us beyond the dawn Grabbing its horns In a flash we’re reborn I was sleeping until the wave came Dreaming about what might have been Sleeping until the wave came Cold sea arresting me to say I was sleeping until the wave came Quicksands of time tasting brine Sleeping until the wave came Smelling salts seeing all-of-it rewind I was sleeping until the wave came Rushing water waking my senses Sleeping until the wave came Absolution from a different life’s sentence Absolution from a different life’s sentence Absolution from a different life’s sentence

Rivet Gun New York, New York

Rivet Gun was born from the off-off-Broadway musical "Negative Space", canceled on opening night 2020 due to COVID19. The band are Broadway pit and session players hand-picked to back power-voiced front woman Wilma Rivets. True urban gourmets, Rivet Gun adds modern flavor to the counter-culture lyricism of Jim Morrison and Bob Dylan, served on a bed of snarly guitar licks and fleshy organ swirls. ... more
