Women of Action – Part One (Myna)
The women of town,
Had gathered roun',
Comin' to Myna's aid,
Their plans had been laid.
The Mayor needed savin',
Seems Uno Zappa has been misbehavin';
Out back of the library, in a storage room,
Is where he's being held, they presume.
The ladies head out into the street,
Ready for their fate to meet;
One stop must be made,
For Myna to enlist Rue's aid.
Sister Mary Grace and all the children,
In the orphanage needed protectin',
In case this plan got out of hand,
Rue and the Kit-Kats could make a stand.
In the hotel the Kit-Kats are in a bustle,
Looks like a party, everyone's in a rustle,
But they are taking things down,
Rue directing them with a frown.
"What, now you all show up!?!
I thought you are going after Lorne?"
Rue says with a glare.
"There is no time to lose, Rue I need your help."
Myna declares, with desperation in her eyes.
"I need you to protect the children andSister Mary Grace, if things go wrong. Please Rue,
You going to the orphanage won't draw any attention,
Like it would from the Sheriff or Billy. We have a plan,
Will you help us pull it off?"
Rue dropped everything and summoned her tribe.
"You can count on us, Myna,
That man lays a finger on one of those kids and
He'll have no place to hide."
Rue went to the orphanage alone.
Her best warriors took up position around the place.
Sister Mary wondered
why the serious face.
"We have a situation you need to know.
There are some bad men in the building
So it's time to go.
We have to be discreet and not make a peep."
"We don't wish to alarm them
But my tribe will keep the children safe.
Maybe we make it fun for them
Perhaps tell them it's a race?"
Sister Mary knew
she could trust Rue
If she said they needed to go,
That's all she needed to know.
She got the children in a line.
Told them it was fire drill time.
Quiet and calm, they went down the fire escape.
Now it was time to seal Uno Zabba's fate.
