Part of the Union: Bernard Carney song

Part of the Union

A song by Bernard Carney©Bernard Carney



Oh we are gathered on this hill
To oppose the unfair bills
If they go ahead our rights are dead
It can only bring us ill
Conditions all will fade
There's nothing left to trade
These new workplace agreements soon
Will see us underpaid

Chorus:
Oh oh

You don't get me I'm part of the union
You don't get me I'm part of the union
You don't get me I'm part of the union
Till the day I die
Till the day I die

Well are they taking us for fools
In our hospitals and schools
As they shoot the blame to a log of claims
But never their new rules
There's a legislative tide
And it threatens to divide
So raise your voice there's little choice
And sing this song with pride

It's a gathering of wills
To oppose the unfair bills
If they go ahead our rights are dead
It can only bring us ill
Conditions all will fade
There's nothing left to trade
These new workplace agreements soon
Will see us underpaid
