about

This s a half-imagined conversation between Susan and Mrs. Stanton during the Civil War.

lyrics

Susan: "Every cause for which we fought has failed. Every secret move we made revealed."
Mrs Stanton: "Wait, I thought we won once… New York state?"
Susan: "No. Albany reversed it."
Mrs. Stanton: "I thought by now we’d have the vote."
Susan: “Yeah but then slavery worsened. Wherefore we’re forced into a war by some prairie politician who wants to free the Southern slave but not those in the union, who sorta hates slavery but not nearly enough. He meets Mrs. Stanton, does not impress her much."
