Picket Line by John Tomlinson

Oh we're relaxed and comfortable
Yes we're doing fine
we are relaxed and comfortable
out on the picket line.
I know you said you'd govern
you'd govern for all of us
we'd be relaxed and comfortable
and there'd be no fuss.
Well we are relaxed and comfortable
and so say all of us:
yes, we're relaxed and comfortable
we're feeling mighty fine
we are relaxed and comfortable
out on the picket line.
The rain might fall the wind might blow,
hard times come and hard times go,
there might be hail there might be snow,
but we're relaxed and comfortable
out on the picket line.
Cause in our hearts we're smiling
and we know we'll see sunshine.
Yes we will see sunshine
at the ending this struggle
when we lay our banners down
we'll be relaxed and comfortable
there'll be no need to frown.
Because we stand together
and together we will win.
We won't scab or lie or cheat
so in the end you face defeat.
Together we will win.
We don't need guard dogs
nor come in the dead of night
we struggle for each other
and we try to do what's right.
Oh we don't need to lie and cheat
we don't need to steal.
We try to tell it like it is
we try to make it real,
and in our trust of others
we have forged a force of steel.
You might look in wonderment
you might smile and sneer
but the picket line is stronger now
the end is coming near.
We don't lie to judges
we won't lie to you
we don't lie to each other
we will build a world anew.
We are relaxed and comfortable
I say we're doing fine
we are relaxed and comfortable
out here on the picket line.
Standing shoulder to shoulder
supporting one another:
brothers, sisters, children, wives,
fathers, daughter, mother.
Yes, we are relaxed and comfortable
out here we're doing fine
yes, we are relaxed and comfortable
out on the picket line.
Oh you can stick best practice,
and you stick your hate.
We're never voting for yer
once we're back inside the gate.
