about

A rallying song in the spirit of Woody Guthrie and Joe Hill that celebrates workers' collective power to withhold their labor.

"Don't mourn--organize!" -Joe Hill

Also available on 7" vinyl (with flip side Death vs. the Rich, previously released on Le Sang Song s/t LP)--a one-two punch of class consciousness on wax! Check our merch.

lyrics

CAREFUL

How to undo the knot
Of the haves and have-nots
And the things they do not know
Are bad ‘cause they just keep growing

And those that were below
Did not know so they did not show
And those that are on top
They would not stop
No they would not stop

And don’t you know
You should be more careful

A little more kind
And a lot less hateful

Because we don’t wanna work no more
We don’t wanna sweep and mop your floors
We don’t wanna cook your food
Or even drive your cars
And we don’t wanna be the ones
To have to shoot and point your guns
Leave us alone
And we will do the same for you

And don’t you know
You should be more careful

You’re just making us strong
And a little resentful

Because we don’t wanna work no more
We don’t wanna sweep and mop your floors
We don’t wanna cook your food
Or even drive your cars
And we don’t wanna be the ones
To have to shoot and point your guns
Leave us alone
And we will do the same for you

And can’t you hear
The trumpets blowing

Yeah we’re taking it back
Yes the feeling’s growing

Because we don’t wanna work
For some pennies in the dirt
We just want to have fun
Sit back and enjoy the sun

Because for all our life-long lot
“Thanks a lot” is all we ever done got
And to those that are on top
I say: Grab a mop and clean up your own slop!
