TAX THE RICH

Who says it has to be like this?

Tax the rich

With a debt ceiling falling in

Tax the rich

And a national economy bottoming out

Tax the rich

While the working class tightens its belt

Tax the rich

The yachting class is getting fat

Tax the rich

On subsidies for billionaires

Tax the rich

And oil companies

Tax the rich

Insurance companies rake it in

Tax the rich

While health care ceases to exist

Tax the rich

And education is being gutted

Tax the rich

While unions and immigrants are being blamed

Tax the rich

So that we can bailout the bankers

Tax the rich

With corporate welfare

Tax the rich

And global warfare

Tax the rich

Capitalization doesn’t work

Tax the rich

For 99% of this planet

Tax the rich

The system is imploding

Tax the rich

And the bombs, they keep exploding

Tax the rich

Tearing up our lives

Tax the rich

With the blood-thirsty shrapnel of their greed

Tax the rich

The measure of austerity is a grave

Tax the rich

No longer shall we be your slaves

Tax the rich

You can hear the drums beating

Tax the rich

It’s on everybody’s lips

Tax the rich

And it’s getting louder

Tax the rich

All together now

Tax the rich

And step forward into that brighter day.
