Traditionally, speaking

Traditionally, speaking
not for myself
on anyone's behalf
you want to go back

You want to go back
to the kitchen
to last week
to the last dark age

(when boys wear blue
and girls pink)

Traditionally, speaking
you want to go back
speak when you
are commanded to
(hold your piece otherwise)

Discipline, respect
hold your peace, woman
a little bit on the side
as we go back(wards)

Traditionally, speaking
of course
