Cheerleaders National Anthem
oh say can you see
by the blue tvs light
when democracy failed
and wall street was scheming
the jail stripes and iron bars
left the ghettos in scars
from our sofas we watched
as the nation was screaming
and the missiles red glare
star wars nukes in the air
if you're not rich and white
then your rights are stripped bare
oh say will that blood-spattered dollar still reign--
in the land of corporate greed,
and the home of the slave.

I like to bike
I like to bike, bike, because to bike is what I like
on all cars and trucks we call a general strike!
We like to bike, bike, calling all bikers to unite,
I think I'd like to trade that car in for a bike!
'Cause there ain't no power like pedal power 'cause the pedal power don't stop!
SAY WHAT?
It's an anti-fossil fuel revolution, from the bottom up to the top!
So f*ck cops when they try to keep us from taking the streets,
every day is critical mass!
So hop on a bike, and join with us, and together we'll kick the gas!

A Few of my Favorite Things
Warm April showers and cold moons in autumn,
good friends and lovers, you know when you've got 'em,
replacing government with anarchy,
these are a few of my favorite things.
Lockdowns and treesits and teach-ins and blockades,
joining with others to fight for a new day,
reclaiming streets while we dance and we sing,
these are a few of my favorite things.
When corporate culture, it surrounds me, and I think I'll give up,
I simply remember my favorite things, and then I go FUCK SHIT UP!

Acka Backa
My back is achin'
My bra's too tight!
My booty's shakin'
from the left to the right.
Shout it out: REVOLUTION!
Shout it out: REVOLUTION! (or REAL SOLUTIONS!)

Enough is enough!
We all must rise up (Or "the poor must rise up)
Didn't eat today
No place to stay (OR "got bills to pay")
So kiss the back of my butt, uh!
kiss the back of my butt, uh!
Kiss the back of my,
kiss the back of my,
kiss the back of my butt, uh!

Acka back, your soda cracker,
your money, your jobs,
your institions that never listen
to the people's needs
it's all about greed,
so beep beep beep
take your voice to the street, girrrrrrrrrl (or yall)

Take it to the Streets
To the tune of Fraggle Rock

Take it to the streets
Revolution is so sweet
Something we expect
is freedom and respect
freedom and respect

Radicals of today
We need to find a better way
We need to have a say
Equality's the way
Equality's the way

Stomp and smash the state,
It's time for us to liberate,
and bush can go to hell!
Rise up! Resist! Rebel!
Rise up! Resist! Rebel!

Libraries and the Patriot Act Cheer
Who reads the books?
The people read the books!
And when the libraries are oppressed,
then the people are distressed!

Who uses knowledge?
The scholars love the knowledge!
But when the libraries are suspect,
then the scholars are a wreck!

Who checks out "bad" books,
un-American sites takes a look?
You can’t run and you can’t hide,
The government wants control of your mind!

Who knows the truth?
Libraries hold the truth,
But librarians cannot speak,
So you yourself won’t hear a peep!

They know what you surf, and they know what you read,
This protection from terror’s more than us folks need!
They find websites you visit, and whatever you type,
Stealing our civil liberties, we surely will fight!

Librarians fight the power,
and the people find the power,
and when the people fight the power,
they smash it all the way down!


ARE YOU READY
(This is a call and response. One person does "aaarreee you ready...?"
and the rest respond with yeah. Then the lead person rotates for each new "aaarreee…"
I underlined where the accent should be)

Aaaaarrrrrre you ready to smash the state? YEAH
Aaaaarrrrrre you ready to fight their hate? YEAH

Chorus:
The time has come to put an end
To f ear, to laws, to the sys-tem!
W e have the power and we won’t stop!
W e have the power it’s time to rock!

Aaaaarrrrrre you ready to show their lies ? YEAH
Aaaaarrrrrre you ready to organize? YEAH

Chorus:
The time has come to put an end
To f ear, to laws, to the sys-tem!
W e have the power and we won’t stop!
W e have the power it’s time to rock!

Finance Yr State
They'll tax you when you earn,
They'll tax you when you spend,
They'll tax you when you're smoking
When you have a drink of gin

Don't dare laugh 'cause this ain't funny
The government (beat) just wants yr money--

For pigs,
For prisons,
For weapons of war,
Is that really worth working for?
I'm not bustin my ass to feed yr hate,
Can't use me to finance your hate (3x)
