WHICH SIDE ARE YOU ON?

February 23, 2002 Victoria rally song
This song is not specifically about teaching or the public school education system. But some of you may find it useful at future events with other groups of workers or sections of our society that have come under attack and want to protest or just do some empowering singing. Please feel free to bend, mutilate or otherwise change the words to suit your purpose. E-mail me for the chords if you need to.
--Jim Edmondson, Surrey

Come all you BC People,
A story I will tell
About how a people's movement
Has come in here to dwell.

Chorus:
Which side are you on? x 4

The Liberals got elected.
They told a pack of lies.
We citizens don't have chance
Unless we organize!

The Liberals and their bankers
They just don't give a hoot.
They follow Michael Harris
And the Fraser Institute

They say that in old Lotusland
You'd better get well quick.
They're selling health like real estate
It's enough to make you sick

Now Christy Clark's got child care
For her kid right down the hall
While Westcoast Child Care Resource
Centre will get no cash at all.

The Liberals are like Wal-Mart
With their slimy, lying ads.
They'll take the heart and soul
Out of our caring neighbourhoods!

Oh people can you stand it?
Oh listen to me well!
Let's sink this Liberal government
In the deepest pits of hell!
