[Verse 1]
You make strong case for woman’s right
How dare religion term oblige?
Sacrifice life for unborn
Conceived by accident or force? (for example)
[Verse 2]
You make clear case for you decide
How dare the state get in your face?
Veto flesh ownership claim
Your sovereign right to choose deny
[Chorus v1]
Yet I decline to enter, prefer to pose my questions-three
1. Who do you think that you are?
2. When you believe life begins?
3. How do you define what person is?
[Verse 3]
You make good case for moral fight
Arm military justify
See enemy in other
With land of birth identify
[Chorus v2]
Yet I refuse to argue, prefer defer to questions-three
1. Who do you think that you are?
2. When you believe life begins?
3. How do you define what person is?
[Instrumental and spoken word]
How safe are your answers? That’s for you to decide. What if life and personhood have nothing to do with the body … they exist before and after? Do you think that’s possible? Would it change the way you position yourself?
[Verse 4]
Find evidence in nature’s way
At top of food chain human race
Dominion means exploit
In other species see fair game
[Chorus v3]
Still I refuse to engage, prefer return to questions-three
1. Who do you think that you are?
2. When you believe life begins?
3. How do you define what person is?
