Fish Plant Rebellion

The guard at the gate said, "Don't trust the government"
I woke up dirty, wonderin’ where my money went
Who says you can't take a shot at a president?
Say you're sorry and be on your way

Well, we’ll all rise up when the plant shuts down
Tighten up, girls, when your men leave town
I'll kill the work song when you're makin' car bombs

Well, the girls in the break room don't trust the union
That Jackson's taking money from their checks for uniforms
Won't back 'em up on an overdue raise
Don’t want ’em makin' it with the fishermen and messin’ up the workplace

Well, we'll all rise up when the plant shuts down
Tighten up, girls, when your men leave town
I'll kill the work song when you're makin’ car bombs

Well now, Jackson from the union, he's a company man
He got a company song, sings in a company band
The company picnic at the forest preserve
He got what he had comin', got what he deserved
His tires were slashed, his wallet was gone
He was last seen kissin' on the owner's son
In the parking lot after the workers went home
He'll never stink of fish, and he'll always fish alone

Well, we'll all rise up when the plant shuts down
Tighten up, girls, when your men leave town
I'll kill the work song while you're makin' car bombs
Well, we'll all rise up when the plant shuts down
Tighten up, girls, when your men leave town
I'll kill the work song, go on, make your love now

I'll kill the work song when you're makin' car bombs
I'll kill the work song while you're makin' love now

The guard at the gate said, "Don't trust the government"
I woke up dirty, wonderin' where my money went
Who says you can't take a shot at a president?
Say you're sorry and be on your way
