Activity Grrrl

Check out this interview with the lovely Joan Jett in Esquire.  Here is a video of Joan Jett playing Go Home! and one of my favorite songs Activity Grrrl with Evil Stig.  In college I felt like the lyrics were really about me. This was my mantra!  If you don't know about Evil Stig, please do some research about them!




Activity Grrrl

She works real hard to try to make things right
To see if she can find a reason for what's wrong In life 

She puts her thoughts into magazine form
And passes them all around her dorm
Showing me another way, another way to fight
Activity Grrrl trying to change the world
She's gonna knock on your door
Activity Grrrl in an uptight world
She's impossible to ignore
She spends her days involved in community things
And at night she'll go out to a club where she likes to sing
She teaches so the others will know
There's more beneath the skin that doesn't show
And she's looking at the challenge that tomorrow's bringing
Activity Grrrl trying to change the world
She's gonna knock on your door
Activity Grrrl in an uptight world
She's impossible to ignore
Revolution

Hopes to fix the problems that come within her space
And takes hurting people real serious you can see it on her face
She can't accept that life is unfair
She wants to think the others care
And won't go away she's gonna stay right in your face
Activity Grrrl trying to change the world
She's gonna knock on your door
Activity Grrrl in an uptight world
She's impossible to ignore
Activity Grrrl trying to change the world
She's gonna knock on your door
Activity Grrrl in an uptight world
She's impossible to ignore
