Little Bo Peep
Said "Votes for my sheep"
But didn't know how to get them.
She stood in the street
With crook all complete.
If she sees a new hat she'll forget them.

This is "The House" that man built,
And these are a few of the Ladies of Fame
Anxious to write M.P. after their name,
With each sex on a par, why put up the bar?

Quoth, the sweet Suffragette we're entitled to get
