lyrics

Yesterday I dreamt I was an entitled self-made man
Even in my sleep I can't escape the neo-liberal plan
Fat cuts & privatization splits the well-to-do & the damned
& Our leaders offer nothing but the imitation of Uncle Sam

There's gotta be...Something else!
Some other way for things to be
A balance between culture & economy
A democratic social union set us free
A democratic social union set us free!

All hail border-less trade policies that the Master Class defends
Foreign suits they own our brains & rape our lands for a couple of cents
Yet we're told that all are free, don't mobilize & have no fear
You're free to speak your mind, all at once, every four years

There's gotta be...Something else!
Some other way for things to be
A balance between culture & economy
A democratic social union set us free
A democratic social union set us free!

Our sense of community needs maintenance & it's urgent
Individualistic logic so ingrained that solidarity became a burden
The people's union is a threat thus top brass breeds division
They know mutual support is the greatest form of opposition

There's gotta be...Something else!
Some other way for things to be
A balance between culture & economy
A democratic social union set us free
A democratic social union set us free!
Democracy! Set us free!
Democracy! Set us free!
A democratic social union set us free!
A democratic social union set us free!

Students & workers, stand up and heed the call
Unite & organize to break down the city walls
Forced on our hands & knees by debt, but still we move & crawl
Our mighty voice will echo all the way down to City Hall

There's gotta be...Something else!
Some other way for things to be
A balance between culture & economy
A democratic social union set us free
A democratic social union set us free!
