General Strike
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
shut it down! we're tired, yeah, tired of workin'.
yeah, workin' for nothin'.
we all want, what we got comin'.
all we need is a break, come on take a break.
everything is not all right and there's no end in sight.
you can call it, whatcha like.
come on, stand up for your rights.
stand up, stand and unite.
it's time for a general strike.
we been out, breakin' our backs.
been out workin' gettin' no slack.
all week long, payin' those bills.
that's just the people, that still got a job.
what about the rest of us, on the soupline.
stand up, stand, stand and unite.
it's time for a general strike.
stand up, stand and unite.
it's time!!!
