Jane Do
She's climbin' up a ladder, navigating suits
presenting to the company just what she wants to do
It's sustainable and visionary, lucritive, exact
got a team doing research to back it up with facts
How does she do it all? How has she been doing it all along?
Jane is my girl, she's my sister, my mom, every woman who turns her light on
She's a fundraising organizer, on task,
got a flow chart mapped in her veins
She's spinning around, holding hands with her sister's kids,
faces turned up to the rain
She was initiated into an Isis tribe, drove and 18 wheeler rig to Mississippi
got her girlfriends together on a new moon night to plant intention seeds
So check it out, Dick, Jane's heart is on fire
at just what it is to be, to be
and you can see Jane do what she do when she do how she do
if you shift about 90 degrees
She's graphically designing, taking pictures at the scene
writing grants for a non-profit, captain of the team
she's a radio dj, a permaculture pro,
a rock-climbing, meditating sister to a bro...
She paints in the middle of the night, plays the tabla,
guiding them all on a river raft trip
she holds each baby in her arms like it's her own,
she takes time to be alone.
So check it out, folks, Jane's heart is on fire
and you ca see Jane do what she do when she do how she do
if you shift about 90 degrees.
She's a ghost-busting, toast master working for the watershed,
bee-keeping hurdle-leaper, making sure the goats are fed
tree-pruning dancer, interpreter, a drag king
black belt, crone, scholar, teaching little kids to sing!
Her art is midwifery, giving birth in ecstasy
she is dreaming her future, shaping her clay, she's learning to speak Portuguese
Jane is my girl, she's my sister, my mom, every woman who turns her light on!
She's doin' it, she's turnin' it on, go Jane, she's doing it, she's turning it on
Everybody!
We're doing it, we're turning it on!
