Name: while the world goes flowing by
Duration: P00H02M47S
Description: I waited to the last minute since I couldn't really think of anything to write about that was song worthy. So instead I dashed this off about girls in parts of the world that have to drop out of school when they hit puberty because there are zero menstrual products around. It's a real problem, plus I haven't written any menstrual songs yet, so YOU'RE WELCOME FELLAS.

lyrics

She just wants to keep on learning
Like she did not long ago
But now it is just a yearning
Kept at home by nature's flow
No suburban mother's cabinet
Exists within a hundred miles
No corner store to grab some tampons.
The scraps they have don't work for long enough to leave

Without always she she is stuck at home
she falls behind
Without always she just drops out of school
While the world keeps flowing by
