  • Song Lyrics:
    In every little town and village too
    Somewhere in the neighborhood
    You'll find a little band of ladies who
    Can't stop doing good
    Good for the pigeons in the park
    Good for the weekly tea
    Good for the national bank where they keep their treasury

    We're the ladies aid society
    And we're really a great bunch of girls
    We're the ladies aid society
    And soon we'll take over the world

    Here they come marching down the street
    With their picket signs in hand
    With their blue and white pleated uniforms
    And their all girl five-piece band
    Down with long haired singing groups
    Down with the mayor too
    And if you're under 65, they're down on you

    We're the ladies aid society
    And we just want to sell you the truth
    Were the ladies aid society
    And it's time we clamp down on the youth

    We're the ladies aid society
    and we're really a great bunch of girls
    We're the ladies aid society
    And soon we'll take over the world

    We're the ladies aid society
    And we just want to sell you the truth
    Were the ladies aid society
    And it's time we clamp down on the youth
    (I B Emerson)
