Lyrics

WTO DISCO
Words by Dana Lyons
Music by the Village People (YMCA)

Corporations, it’s a really great day
To sidestep nations, who just get in the way
Because their people, have too much of a say
But boys we have got the answer
Free trade, it sounds really good
It spells freedom for the corporate brotherhood
And you need us in your neighborhood
We’re the new global employers

CHORUS
Ah honey let’s join the WTO
Make lots a money at the WTO
We can change a few laws
Fix democracy’s flaws
It’s the corporate new world order

Unions are a pain in the ass
They cause problems, give executives gas
They want fair wages for the people who work
What a bunch of jerks
Poor children must be taught how to live
They need employment so they’ll have money to give
To corporations who are making their clothes
The child labor laws must go

CHORUS

People of America fret
Turtles and dolphins, who are caught in the nets
But it takes money to free all these pests
And that’s a free trade barrier
Clean air is a luxury for some
But let’s be fair, it’s not for everyone
Cause goods are cheaper, if you release a little scum
Defend your freedom of pollution

CHORUS
