Lyrics
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
