Lyrics
Are you sleeping, are you sleeping On Wall Street? On Wall Street? It's an occupation Tryin' to save the nation From Wall Street, From Wall Street Hey high finance, this is your chance Fermez vous, Fermez vous Time for full disclosure This is your foreclosure Fermez vous, Fermez vous Close your peepers, freedom sleepers Dormez vous, Dormez vous When we fight injustice They will try to bust us Never fear, We're still here
