[Intro]
You know, we're not gonna take it anymore, we've just had enough

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 1]
We never went on strike because we wanted more wages
Better wages than a doctor have, or a nurse
We went on strike for a job
The right to go out the house in the morning
And go to work

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
If you look at the benefits of ordinary working people
All the things they've achieved in life is through conflict and strikes
I don't think there'll ever be a day in life
When ordinary people can say "I never have to go on strike again"

[Chorus]
What you see on the telly is nothing
What you read in the papers is nothing
I was brought up to respect police
I don't respect them now
[Instrumental Outro]
