After Occupy, Tahrir, and Wisconsin comes North Carolina’s Moral Mondays campaign.
Six o’clock already
Tillis and Berger got a scheme
They’ve been cutting voting rights
Anything to kill the dream
We better not be late
They’ll get away with their health care raid
These are the days
When you give up bein’ afraid
It’s just another Moral Monday
We get ready on Sunday
Preparin’ for our get it done day
It’s our one for all and all for one day
That’s why we call it Moral Monday
Guv’nor McCrory, teachers at your feet
Abortions in the alley, guns in every street
Slash unemployment, how do we pay the rent?
Tax cuts for the rich but we ain’t got a cent
Gerrymandering without a true case
State religion creeps in like a nun
But Monday’s wild, your party is a disgrace
We are not done
Moral Monday, so good for me
Moral Monday it was all I hoped it would be
Though Moral Monday, Moral Monday couldn’t guarantee
That Monday evenin’ North Carolina would be free
Every other day, every other day
Legislature gets away with crime, yeah
But whenever Monday comes, but whenever Monday comes
You can find me handcuffed if not doin’ time
Moral Monday how I love Moral Monday
Get to take back our state all day
Here come Tuesday, it’s a blues day
That’s when Art Pope comes out to play
On Wednesday, they tax the poor
Ban abortion & Sharia Law
Then on Thursday they raise what students pay
And Friday ALEC gets its way
Saturday mornin’, oh Saturday mornin’
All my health care has gone away
They got my money and my union, honey
And they’re buying’ elections every day
Sunday mornin’ I’m feelin’ bad
Took our souls from the polls, we’ve been had
But I’ve got to get my rest, cause
Moral Monday’s the best
