歌词
Each morning on the road I read the paper
And with every line I feel my spirits sink
Unemployment increased, murder in the Middle East
Homeland insecurity suspending civil liberties
Landmark legislation in the nation makes it criminal to think
Each headline highlights one more crooked caper
And each by-line boasts of one more sordid scheme
If Bush gets into one more war, I'm getting out
If congress passes one more fascist act, I'm gonna scream
Feels like everything is falling apart at the seams
Do you know what I mean?
But then I go and see Julie, up in Milwaukee
A peace action devotee
Or Pat and Bernie, San Francisco, California
Singing their hearts out for solidarity
I remember Tom Wilson and Juanita Nelson
And the war tax they refuse
And I'm feeling so much better that I'm ready for the five o'clock news
Oh, no!
The anchorman resembles Robert Redford
His sidekick looks like Chelsea Clinton's mom
She reports compellingly on a local spelling bee
Tune in at 11 'cause she's rev'ing up for coverage of the prom
It's a sitcom
The weatherman's one liners make my head hurt
And the local team's been given up for dead
The film reviewer interviews a chimp, I'm getting out
The prom reporter's voting for their queen, I'm going to bed
If you tuned in for the news, you've been badly mislead
Now it's back to you, Ted
I want to hear about Rebecca, Jeff and Martha marching in Ann Arbor
Or Mike and Sue caring up Toledo
They don't cover Chris Insera, Francisco y Yanira
El pueblo unido Jamas Sera Vencido
Or father Roy Bourgeois, Columbus, Georgia
Shutting down the SOA
If you believe the TV, you'd think democracy is slipping away
I got something to say (say it!)
We've still got WOSH, NCOSH, Philaposh, Connecticosh
Fight for worker's safety and health
United for a fair economy is challenging monopoly
And trying to spread around a little corporate wealth
There's a peace demonstration in every nation
20 million marchers can't be wrong
So let's keep on fighting the good fight, people
And let's keep singing our song
You won't read it in the paper, won't see it on the news
But you just might hear it in a talkin' blues
Thanks for the energy keeping me singing these songs
