Tony Norwell Miscellaneous Tressell of Mugsborough Tressell of Mugsborough June 1983 (can be sung to the tune of Come All Ye Tramps And Hawkers or The Durham Strike) In the town of Mugsborough were sorry for to say The Workers are still sweating hard for a pittance they call pay; Its nigh on a hundred years now since Robert Tressells day And yet well nearly all support this system in some way. We need not state the reasons why the workers have been fooled The Tory Press the media have us all so well ruled! It makes you sick the way they grovel and the way they drool On folk like Mrs. Thatcher whore so vicious and so cruel. Theres so much work that needs to be done to meet with human need But many of us dont have enough even to clothe and feed. Theyve forced the dole queue on us as a way of keeping down Our wages that we spend to keep the wheel of life going round. The jobless have to search each day for work to do while still Theres so much work needs doing - using all our sweat and skill. Were stopped from doing useful work thats needed to be done While so much work thats done - todays no use to anyone. We wish that Robert Tressell could come back to us today Hed be surprised to find we havent yet all changed the way We run our crazy system so that peoples wants and needs Are still not satisfied (be)cause of the ruling classs greed. Through this whole world over were still sorry for to say The workers all still listen to the rot the Tories say. We wish a lad like Robbie Tresselld come to us again And that his life and work have not been totally in vain. |
