	WHICH SIDE ARE YOU ON music - traditional, original lyrics by Florence Reece; new lyrics by Polarity/1
	. Em B7 Em................. Come all you good workers and all you dispossessed Em B7 Em The perps are not in prison. Nobody has confessed . Em B7 Em Chorus: Which side are you on, boys? Which side are you on? Em.. B7 Em Which side are you on, girls? Which side are you on? . My daddy was a banker but I'm not a banker's son I refuse to profit from the pain of anyone . My mama was a waitress and I'm a waitress' girl I take nobody's orders. I'm here to feed the world . Chorus . We'll occupy the city. We'll occupy the town We're an occupational hazard till justice comes around . Corporate-owned country eating corporate ruined food We'll be making lots of noize here cause we won't be subdued . Chorus . ===================================== DARKER VERSION The workers built a country. They built a middle class Unions and inventors, the teachers and the brass But now it's run by players; It's a zero sum game Buying senators and mayors And unions get the blame . Their greed still kills the miner; the job creator's plan Creating jobs for China while we're living in a van Corruption is rewarded; social justice made a joke Equality is thwarted. Our democracy is broke They poisoned the government, the rivers and the land They turned our creativity Into Walmart for the bland The point-O-one percent will own us through and through They own the fuckin planet and they feel like more is due . They sang this in the 30s to call for a new deal We sing it in the street today. The cause is just as real Gotta occupy the streets and occupy this song Gotta occupy reality before everything is gone . The problem isn't money It's very useful stuff But it's nothing but a sickness if you just can't get enough The sickness bought the future. The dream is just a con History is calling to say which side are you on? . . music - traditional, original lyrics by Florence Reece; new lyrics by Polarity/1 . . . . . . . . .
