about

WHEN WE STAND UP
Like all of us I want to be the best I can be and I know I can only do that in the company of other people. If we have learned nothing else during these years of austerity then we need to learn that.

lyrics

WHEN WE STAND UP

You you you and me me me
Not so far apart
You can be what you want to be
What you are in your heart
Your book and my book
Open like a door
You can do what you want to do
We’ve never done before
When we stand up.

Your bright light and my bright light
Burning the shadow’s down
Your voice and my voice
What a lovely lovely sound
All your toys and all my toys
Together here on the ground
You can choose choose choose
What you want to do
And we’ll never look down.
When we stand up.

You can say say say what you want to say
Nobody writes your lines
Go and Play play play where you want to play
And keep dancing all the time
Your eyes and my eyes ever open wide
Just look what they’ve been doing to you
You take a look. A look outside
When we stand up.
When we stand up.
Stand up, up, and be yourself
Stand up.

Stand up up and be yourself
Get down and get down off the shelf
Stand up

Stand up up and be yourself
Stand up stand up with everybody else.
When we stand up.
