SIGN OF THE TIMES by Tom Jensen
Calling all revolutionary reformists
Just how long can we ignore this?
Somebody's gotta try to resist
Before the boot gets too big
Sure, in my heart stands a pacifist
But behind him stands a line of people
Who are pissed and it's a sign of the times
When it actually has to come down to this....
I fell down….
When I felt a smack to the back of my head
Yeah, and so….
Didn’t the sign I was holding which read:
World Trade Organization
You had best be on your way…
We’re sick and tired of evil corporations
Getting caught and then just changing their names
Sometimes all it takes
To create a crime
Is the wrong word
At the wrong time
To push a man
Not unlike myself
Right over the edge
Right across the line
I can see that now
This time like never before
A new place to go
Just waiting to be explored
So...just know that my last
Gasping breath will be spent
Denouncing at length against
Whatever corrupt powers that be
And judging not all but some
Without regards to
Or from they’re from
Whether or not they must pay a penalty
Calling all revolutionary reformists
Just how long can we ignore this?
Somebody's gotta try to resist
Before the boot gets too big
Sure, in my heart stands a pacifist
But behind him stands a line of people
Who are pissed and it's a sign of the times
When it actually has to come down to this....
