[00:10.000] They say the working class is dead, we're all consumers now
[00:17.000] They say that we have moved ahead – we're all just people now
[00:26.000] There's people doing 'frightfully well' there's others on the shelf
[00:33.000] But never mind the second kind this is the age of self
[00:53.000] And it seems to me if we forget our roots and where we stand
[00:58.000] The movement will disintegrate like castles built on sand
[01:06.000] They say we need new images to help our movement grow
[01:12.000] They say that life is broader based as if we didn't know
[01:22.000] While Martin J. and Robert M. play with printer's ink
[01:29.000] The workers 'round the world still die for Rio Tinto Zinc
[01:48.000] And it seems to me if we forget our roots and where we stand
[01:53.000] The movement will disintegrate like castles built on sand
[02:06.000] castles built on sand
[00:10.000] They say the working class is dead, we' re all consumers now
[00:17.000] They say that we have moved ahead we' re all just people now
[00:26.000] There' s people doing ' frightfully well' there' s others on the shelf
[00:33.000] But never mind the second kind this is the age of self
[00:53.000] And it seems to me if we forget our roots and where we stand
[00:58.000] The movement will disintegrate like castles built on sand
[01:06.000] They say we need new images to help our movement grow
[01:12.000] They say that life is broader based as if we didn' t know
[01:22.000] While Martin J. and Robert M. play with printer' s ink
[01:29.000] The workers ' round the world still die for Rio Tinto Zinc
[01:48.000] And it seems to me if we forget our roots and where we stand
[01:53.000] The movement will disintegrate like castles built on sand
[02:06.000] castles built on sand
