The Lyrics
WHAT WE ALL WANT
What we all want is a lot more money,
What we all want is a decent pay.
We’ll go on strike till we get what we’re asking for,
Then we’ll go back to work, maybe.
What we all want are some good conditions,
What we all want are some shorter hours.
We’ll go on strike till we get what we’re asking for,
Then we’ll go back to work, maybe.
We were happy to go and mediate,
But all you did was let us down.
We’ll stay away
Till you find a way of coming round.
I recommend that you find an answer,
I recommend that you find one soon.
If you agree to the things that we’re asking,
Then we’ll go back to work, maybe.
Now we’re offering you a compromise,
So we ask you don’t let us down.
We’ll stay away
Till you find a way of coming round.
I recommend that you find an answer,
I recommend that you find one soon.
If you agree to the things we’re asking,
Then we’ll go back to work, maybe.
What we all want is a lot more money,
What we all want is a decent pay.
We’ll go on strike till we get what we’re asking for,
Then we’ll go back to work, maybe.
What we all want are some good conditions,
What we all want are some shorter hours.
We’ll go on strike till we get what we’re asking for,
Then we’ll go back to work, maybe.
We were happy to go and mediate,
But all you did was let us down.
We’ll stay away
Till you find a way of coming round.
I recommend that you find an answer,
I recommend that you find one soon.
If you agree to the things that we’re asking,
Then we’ll go back to work, maybe.
Now we’re offering you a compromise,
So we ask you don’t let us down.
We’ll stay away
Till you find a way of coming round.
I recommend that you find an answer,
I recommend that you find one soon.
If you agree to the things we’re asking,
Then we’ll go back to work, maybe.
