Refuse to be stored in black plastic sacks
(Rage, rage...)

Refuse to be stored in black plastic sacks
And placed in the containers provided.
Fight, fight when bigoted intolerance attacks!
Odd-shaped objects, which our house now lacks
Cannot be into those bin bags guided,
Refuse to be stored in black plastic sacks.
As when crockery and ornaments grow cracks
Thus thrown away in haste by hands misguided,
Fight, fight when bigoted intolerance attacks.
Those who’d cast us down they hunt in packs,
And the battle it may seem to be one-sided,
Refuse to be stored in black plastic sacks.
We come together; have each other’s backs,
As one we’ll stand and never be divided,
Fight, fight when bigoted intolerance attacks.
Only when we’ve won may we relax
‘Til then our fates are undecided.
Refuse to be stored in black plastic sacks,
Fight, fight when bigoted intolerance attacks!
