This is 87 cents
Why am I the nurse and he the doctor?
Why am I the teacher and he the lawyer?
What if I want to be the doctor and he wants to be the nurse?
I work just as hard, if not harder,
But earn 87 cents instead of a dollar,
Clang,Clang,Clang
my $0.87 drops into my hand
I look to my left and see a man $1.00 floats into his hand.
Is he a lion and I a mouse?
He's on a pedestal,
I'm in a cage,
Fighting for my right for a dollar.
