TUC: UNISON INTERACTIVE………

One of the traditions of the TUC Women’s Conference is the final evening social. Every union delegation graces the stage and performs a song. Anxious to ensure that the brothers don’t miss out on this experience, we print the words of the UNISON ditty below. You all know the tune, don’t you? So at nine o’clock tonight, sit in front of your laptop and join in, wherever you are.. You will be singing for socialism…..

Do deh do do do deh do deh do do

We’re singing through the pain
We’re singing through the pain
What a horrible feeling
We’re unhappy again
we’ve cuts at the school
And cuts at the pool s
We’ve lost the home help
And the housing list is full
See the budget is slashed
And the services trashed
Come into the fight
We have no smile on our face
We march down the lane
It’s the unison campaign
We’re singing and dancing to complain
We’re singing and dancing to complain

Dodeh dodo do deh do deh do do

We’re singing through the pain
We’re singing through the pain
The Tories are cutting
Let them take the blame
We’ve seen all their tricks
They deserve all the kicks
Stand up for the service
Reject the bankers fix
Get the women to speak
Everyone has a say
Come into the fight
Put a smile on our face
March with us down the lane
Join the Unison campaign

Just singing and dancing to complain
Just singing and dancing to complain.
