Madame Mercury
Yeah!
(Born in) a time defined
By bias in our laws
(Held to) a standard of
Injustice with no cause
Came a mighty force of reckoning
A gale of objectivity
One with the audacity
To know where she belonged
Let's hear it for the human computer
West area warrior
Pillar of justice and honor
Madame Mercury is here to stay
(Brought forth) blazing
Like a fire left untamed
(No words) strong enough
To keep her locked away
No efforts of misogyny
No judgements from the color of her skin
Could crush the spirit
Of the mathematical maven
Let's hear it for the human computer
West area warrior
Pillar of justice and honor
Madame Mercury is here to...
Fight for the right to dream and
Take her place in the race to go beyond
The stratosphere
The highest tier to space
Hold your ground, take a look around
It's in your right to ignite
The flame that fuels your mind
Do your best, and you will rise
And though there may be those
Who push you down
Let passion raise you
Into the sky
Let's hear it for the human computer
West area warrior
Pillar of justice and honor
Madame Mercury is here to...
Fight for the right to dream and
Take her place in the race to go beyond
The stratosphere
The highest tier to space
Hold your ground, take a look around
It's in your right to ignite
The flame that fuels your mind
Do your best, and you will rise
Feel the drive, take the time
To decide what you'll bring
How to live
When to cry aloud
I will not be silenced
It's my time to soar
I am here to stay!
