A song for #occupy #ows #olsx

You don't have to take this crap

You don't have to sit back and relax

You can actually try changing it

I know we've always been taught to rely

Upon those in authority -

But you never know until you try

How things just might be -

If we came together so strongly

Are you gonna try to make this work

Or spend your days down in the dirt

You see things can change -

YES an' walls can come tumbling down!

Governments crack and systems fall

'cause Unity is powerful -

Lights go out - walls come tumbling down!

The competition is a colour TV

We're on still pause with the video machine

That keep you slave to the H.P.

Until the Unity is threatend by

Those who have and who have not -

Those who are with and those who are without

And dangle jobs like a donkey's carrot -

Until you don't know where you are

Are you gonna realize

The class war's real and not mythologized

And like Jericho - You see walls can come tumbling down!

Are you gonna be threatend by

The public enemies No. 10 -

Those who play the power game

They take the profits - you take the blame -

When they tell you there's no rise in pay

Are you gonna try an' make this work

Or spend your days down in the dirt -

You see things CAN change -

YES an' walls can come tumbling down!
