The morning was new
They stood in a queue
It was long long long
And the sun beat down
And Nancy and Sarah
And Tees and Johanna
They stood in a queue too
What does it mean?
What does it mean?
The thumbs are blue
And the ballots are green
And Nancy and Sarah
Are singing hosanna
They stood in the queue too
Cans in the pantry, beans in the pan
Try seeing the future, try if you can
Gun’s under the pillow with your visa application
Nancy and Sarah and Tees and Johanna
Florence and Doris and Joe and Johannes
Bessie and Violet, Margaret and Iris
Eunice and Hastings, Augustus, Elias
Never and Precious and Wiseman and Patience
Beauty, Silvia, Elvie, Masina
Gladstone, Lebusa, Alfred, Khutala
Nancy and Sarah are singing hosanna
