New Left Review #2 |
| In this dispute |
| You’ve got justice on your side |
| They’ve got the law |
| But we’ll be fighting by the rules |
| Maybe we’ll lose |
| But we can our heads high |
| For if we lose |
| We’ll know that our cause was true |
| Let’s get away |
| From the idea that in industry |
| There are two sides at war |
| It’s not like that at all |
| Play by the rules |
| And public opinion might stay with us |
| Play by their rules |
| We’ll obey all the laws they make |
| Against you |
| Let’s hope to god that the company |
| Will negotiate |
| Militancy is no answer |
| Let’s get away |
| From the idea that in industry |
| There are two sides at war |
| It’s not like that at all |
| So strong’s the right |
| We’ll have to knuckle down |
| Try not to fright |
| Public opinion |
| That’s to be found |
| Inside the Daily Mail |
| So strong’s the right |
| We’ll have to knuckle down |
| They took our funds |
| They put hundreds of blacks in jail |
| The company put thousands more |
| On the dole |
| At my desk I sit back and I wonder why |
| Did we speak too strong? |
| We’ll speak much softer |
| Next time |
| Let’s get away |
| From the idea that in industry |
| There are two sides at war |
| It’s not like that at all |
