Poet's Strike

When a poet strikes all the walls will stand strong
But when a poet strikes than there is no song
for the people to sing as they carve the stone
So the walls come tumbling down
A poet strikes and all the banks will stay open
But when a poet strikes he breaks the teller's hearts
With the teller's hearts broken they forget the combination
And the vaults are all shut down
Cause a poet strikes and nothing's safe, nothing's right
When we organise
A poet strikes at first no one will notice
But a poet strikes and all the mother's will cry out
With a nation of mothers weeping
Who can go on sleeping
A change is bound to occur
I hear guns under water
I can sing louder
I hear guns in the air
I can sing louder
I hear guns in Russia
I can sing louder
I hear guns across America
I can sing louder
Yeah!
