May Day (Union Song)
My generation doesn't talk about unions
All of our contracts say independent
It's a strange time to be alive, to be certain
Treat me like a friend, I'll ask you for benefits
It was on May Day, a day about unions
I thought of our own precious union
In a fit of inspiration, I stumbled to Union Pool
To ask if their membership dues go to SEIU
And that's when I saw you
You said, "Let's take a walk through the park after dark
I was born here in Brooklyn, my backyard's McKibben
So who are we kidding?"
It was on May Day, a day about unions
I thought of our own precious union
Lia, it's a labor of love with you
For the greater good, selfless love
Oh the things that I'd do
Lia, what I wouldn't give to pick up picket signs with you
It's only time until we're front lines, making headlines...
All of our contracts say independent
It's a strange time to be alive, to be certain
Treat me like a friend, I'll ask you for benefits
It was on May Day, a day about unions
I thought of our own precious union
In a fit of inspiration, I stumbled to Union Pool
To ask if their membership dues go to SEIU
And that's when I saw you
You said, "Let's take a walk through the park after dark
I was born here in Brooklyn, my backyard's McKibben
So who are we kidding?"
It was on May Day, a day about unions
I thought of our own precious union
Lia, it's a labor of love with you
For the greater good, selfless love
Oh the things that I'd do
Lia, what I wouldn't give to pick up picket signs with you
It's only time until we're front lines, making headlines...
