Union Songs
Might Makes Right, Dear
A song by Mimi Yahn©Mimi Yahn 2003
(Tune: "Ballad of Mack the Knife")Chorus:
Oh, the mighty strut their stuff, dear
And they fill us full of fear
Yes, the world knows might makes right, dear
For the weak, don't shed a tear.Well, old Nero was a hero
To the Romans long ago
But their empire was a real hell
And the world cheered when Rome fell.Well, old Adolph and his Luftwaffe
Slaughtered millions with a laugh
But their evil knew no bounds, see
So they died in infamy.Now there's Georgie and his bullies
They all think their destiny
Is a global U.S. Imperium
But we know what's in store for them!Last Chorus:
Oh, the mighty strut their stuff, dear
And they fill us full of fear
But the world knows might's not right, dear
For the bullies, don't shed a tear!
