Rise With Me!

Under louring clouds in Northern towns.

The mothers queue in Tuesday's food banks.

Pasta again, to last till Friday.

A man with no legs.

Is "Fit to work!"

Jobsworth gets a bonus.

What is a school without books?

Or pens. Or teachers?

Politicians, tired by their thieving

Play tennis with different thieves.

So will you join and rise with me?

Will you fight the power?

Will you bring this government down?

Surely now’s our hour.
