The Lyrics

(long instrumental intro)

Stand up for your rights this morning.
Don't wait to see
What may be soon done to you with no warning.
Think you're still free... as can be?

(instrumental break)

TIPS informers want to find you.
Propaganda team reminds you.
Bush's endless wars will bind you.

Don't be in a trance - wake up!
Now's your chance to take up
The fight 'gainst W.

Don't you know by now?
Shrub won't give you anything
Except blunders, his regime keeps proving...
Their dumb way...
Go away!

(instrumental break)

If you love your rights, they'll leave you.
When you're locked up, who'll believe you?
That's how fascists can deceive you.

Don't be in a trance - wake up!
Now's your chance to take up
The fight 'gainst W.

Stand up for your rights this morning.
Don't wait to see
What may be soon done to you with no warning.
Think you're still free... as can be?

(instrumental break)

Now the Far Right Wing is crowing.
Coverin' up what's left worth knowing.
They're the slime whom Bush is owing.

Don't be in a trance - wake up!
Now's your chance to take up
The fight 'gainst W.

Don't be in a trance - wake up!
Now's your chance.
Don't be in a trance - wake up!
Now's your chance.

Don't be in a trance - wake up!
Now's your chance.
Don't be in a trance - wake up!
Now's your chance...

(repeat final refrain and fade)
