Shaking The Tree Lyrics

Lyric discussion by DexX 

Cover art for Shaking The Tree lyrics by Peter Gabriel

This is an unusually literal song from PG, all about women's empowerment, and talking about women claiming their rights in a positive way, talking to the men in their lives and trying to grow together, rather than fighting them. This and Today I Am A Daisy by Deborah Conway are, I think, the two most positive songs about modern feminism.
