Even one big union can't help us now Even one big union can't help us now The lines of blame are tangled far below the ground The mines/minds of fame have flown their shiny gold dust all around And even one big union can't help us now Don't it just tear me up to see your children cry When they got ice cream waitin' up in the sky Don't the truth look bad up next to a pretty lie If it gets too high to live you know you're free to die Even one big union can't help us now The hand that holds us down we reach out to hold on
And which side are you on has got more angles than a pentagon And even one big union can't help us now Don't it just tear me up to see your children cry When they got ice cream waitin' up in the sky Don't the truth look bad up next to a pretty lie If it gets too high to live you know you're free to die Even one big union can't help us now The boss says he might let me milk his golden cow And false hope is the seed in the field of greed that we must plow Even one big union can't help us now
