With my apologies to the mighty legendary Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band I give you "Striking in the UK" #ToriesOut208 #AltLyricsParodyCrew #GeneralStrikeNow #GeneralElectionNow #FckTheToriesButNotLiterallyObvs #SupportTheStrikes ✊🤘🎸

Worn down by a Tory government
They’ve filled our rivers and our seas with excrement
Came for your rights but that wasn’t enough
Made up total b*llocks about levelling up now

Striking in the UK, need a strike to save the UK
Need a strike to save the UK, Striking in the UK now

Got embroiled in a tax scam
While the nation’s going down the pan
Johnson off to a foreign land
Don’t be fooled he doesn’t give a damn

Striking in the UK, need a strike to save our UK
Striking in the UK, need a strike to save our UK

In the Commons fine dinery
We need a pay rise they say “don’t ask me”
Went to see the Union Man
He said “well don’t you understand”

Now the workers for the NHS
Striking ‘cause it’s in a mess
Tories still here, workers in distress

Hancock had a woman he had no qualms
Until we got a picture of her in his arms now

Living in the shadow of their f*ckery
Every day and week there’s more of their Tyranny
It’s 13 years we can’t take no more
Take to the streets let’s show them the score

Striking in the UK, need a Strike to save the UK
Striking in the UK, We need a general strike to save the UK now yeah
Striking in the UK, Striking to save the UK
Striking in the UK, We need a general strike to save the UK now yeah
