Up the Spout/ Occupy Wall Street

11/176/11: Zuccotti Park is dead. Long live Occupy Wall St.
Being unemployed is a bummer. God bless Occupy Wall Street. They may not be slick and focused, but at least SOMEONE is expressing outrage.
The lyrics, as they have been requested:
It's a bitter wind, and it ain't no breeze
It shakes the windows and it takes the trees
And it blew me away
I love my work, it's what life's about
That wind came and blew it all up the spout
Yes it blew me away
Now here I sit, what shall I do, that wind left me here
without a clue, yes it blew me away
You were the boss, yet here we meet
Yeah, we both lost on that windy street
It blew us both away
That wind don't care, we're all just dust
And its happening to all of us,--it's blowing us away.
With a little luck I'll make it through
But when that wind blows, it's gonna come for you too--
It's blowing, it;s blowing us away--
Up the Spout --blowing us -- Up the Spout.

Hi Michal, I think it's a great video! I love your voice, your performance and the lyrics are really of the moment! It really hits home! America is sick and tired of big corporations killing the American way of life for the sake of change and helping others who refuse to take action in their own countries. For embedding themselves into the work force for lower wages taking those jobs away Americans. It reminds me of the thiries depression, the sixties angst of the youth. Keeps repeating.

This song is amazing. It defines what the problems are and that "wind" is a coming!
Wish that President Obama would listen to this song and do something. He should come to Occupy Wall Street and let us know that he has not been bought by Wall Street. Great song. great music. Please keep singing it.

This video has the power to ground anyone - even those that are so out of touch with reality that they aren't aware of what's going on.
