lyrics

Bloody Saturday

One hundred years ago, they took to the streets
Thirty thousand strong brought the ‘Peg to its knees
The general strike that shut down the city
Was a cry for justice; against inequity

Some say, that it doesn’t matter
That none of this will matter
That it’s always been this way
It stays the same
Nothing changes
It shall remain

The festive spirit ceased the day of the silent parade
When the mayor read the riot act mounties entered the fray
From Portage and Main to the Devil’s Alley
A hundred twenty shots fired on that Bloody Saturday

Some say, that it doesn’t matter
That none of this will matter
That it’s always been this way
It stays the same
Nothing changes
It shall remain

Some paid with their freedom, others more dearly
But “Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees”
For when the downtrodden rose up they claimed victory
‘Cause we all share in the spoils, this is their legacy

Yeah they say, that it doesn’t matter
That none of this will matter
That it’s always been this way
It stays the same
Nothing changes
Yeah they say, that it doesn’t matter
That none of this will matter
That’s what they’ll always say
They stay the same
They fear changes
