DANCE ON THE SILOS

[Historical Note: pleased to report this was sung (it has a tune too) at Greenham Common, along with many other songs of course.]

 

we've all heard about the women of Greenham boy O boy you should've seen 'em   dance on the silos block the gates dance on the silos surround the base   when they protested War must cease they were arrested for a breach of the peace I said A BREACH OF THE PEACE yeah A BREACH OF THE PEACE that's what it's called by the police when you dance on the silos/ block the gates/ dance on the silos/ surround the base   so stay calm obey the Law there's no harm in a Nuclear War   now some among us may suspect it ain't freedom of speech those Bombs protect they dance on the silos/ block the gates/ dance on the silos/ surround the base   I guess they're trying to tell us straight it's no damned good to sit & wait don't say touch wood or Fate is Fate one day soon it will be too late if we don't do something mighty quick we could be feeling more than slightly sick we can't live much longer in fear & hate so        dance on the silos block the gates TOGETHER WE'RE STRONGER THAN THE STATE TOGETHER WE'RE STRONGER THAN THE STATE dance on the silos/ block the gates/ dance on the silos/ surround the base   (Photo by Raissa Page)
