lyrics

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

L, it's a labor of love with you
For the greater good, selfless love,
Oh the things that I'd do
L, what I wouldn’t give to pick up picket signs with you
It’s only time until we’re front lines, making headlines...
