Yoko Ono (1933): Cheers to women on top (1973)

I FORBINDELSE MED FORBEREDELSERNE TIL ET FOREDRAG OM japansk kunst og særligt om Tokyos kunstscene fra midt 1960erne til midt 1970erne dukkede denne fantastiske sang af Yoko Ono fra 1973 op: Cheers to the women on top. Hør nummeret her.

DER ER ÅBENBART FORSKELLIGE oversættelser af teksten til Cheers to women on top, men her er en af dem:
One thousands years of male society
Smog covers the land of Japan
History shows how incompetent they are
Time has come for all men to resign

It's time to show women's true nature
Let us open a new age
With women's soul and women's power
With women's soul and women's power

One thousands years of male society
Mahjongg rattles in the land of Japan
History shows how powerless they are
Time has come for women on top

It's time to exercise women's gift
Let us build a new age
With women's soul and women's power
With women's soul and women's power

One Thousands years of male society
Corrupt politics in the land of Japan
History shows how reckless they are
Time has come for women's solidarity

It's time to sing wome's mind
Let us create a new age
With women's soul and women's power
With women's soul and women's power

(Chorus)
Cheers to women on top! Cheers to women on top!
Cheers to women on top! Cheers to women on top!
