Up The Union
Those who would destroy or further limit
The rights of organized labor
Those who would cripple collective bargaining
Or prevent organization of the unorganized
Do a disservice to the cause of democracy
Well, it's starting again, a turnaround friend
A movement of people that want to defend
Human rights, a fair wage
A quick return to decent days
Equality is in play
Workers should organize without haste
Have the vote in your workplace
Work with your manager face to face
Look out, it's starting again
The change, a new labor age
Support the EFCA
Let's go and start it again
Here is a shot at the Walmart
Pay your workers or have you forgot?
Fair treatment, decency
Or your dedication to corporate greed?
All your gains, low, low price
At the expense of human rights
Still knocking your door with labor might
Picket at every Walmart site
Look out, it's starting again
The change, a new labor age
Support the EFCA
Let's go and start it again
Don't forget your time again
You can't keep democracy under wraps
No fucking way
Up the union
Up the union
Up the union
Sing with the band
E-F-C-A, Employee Free Choice Act
Up the union
Look out, it's starting again
The change, a new labor age
Support the EFCA
Let's go and start it again
CEOs get their perks
With legal protection they go to work
What about the workers and their hard work?
Who stands up for their net worth?
The pay up top is way too high
While those in the middle barely get by
EFCA is higher pay, vote for it today
The rights of organized labor
Those who would cripple collective bargaining
Or prevent organization of the unorganized
Do a disservice to the cause of democracy
Well, it's starting again, a turnaround friend
A movement of people that want to defend
Human rights, a fair wage
A quick return to decent days
Equality is in play
Workers should organize without haste
Have the vote in your workplace
Work with your manager face to face
Look out, it's starting again
The change, a new labor age
Support the EFCA
Let's go and start it again
Here is a shot at the Walmart
Pay your workers or have you forgot?
Fair treatment, decency
Or your dedication to corporate greed?
All your gains, low, low price
At the expense of human rights
Still knocking your door with labor might
Picket at every Walmart site
Look out, it's starting again
The change, a new labor age
Support the EFCA
Let's go and start it again
Don't forget your time again
You can't keep democracy under wraps
No fucking way
Up the union
Up the union
Up the union
Sing with the band
E-F-C-A, Employee Free Choice Act
Up the union
Look out, it's starting again
The change, a new labor age

Let's go and start it again

What about the workers and their hard work?
Who stands up for their net worth?
The pay up top is way too high
While those in the middle barely get by
EFCA is higher pay, vote for it today
