[00:00:01] Sisters Of Mercy - Weddings Parties Anything

[00:00:35] Oh the winds they were howlin'

[00:00:38] Both ragged and cold

[00:00:41] Through the grey melbourne streets

[00:00:43] In the pre christmas days

[00:00:47] And the sisters of

[00:00:49] Mercy looked out through their tents

[00:00:52] At the fires in petrol drums

[00:00:56] They seemed to say

[00:00:59] Have we come to this

[00:01:01] Is it all we can do

[00:01:04] To sit here and wait

[00:01:07] To see the strik through

[00:01:09] But to dig in their heels was a thing

[00:01:13] They'd been taught

[00:01:15] So they painted a sign and it said

[00:01:19] "Blow your horn if you support"

[00:01:27] Oh sister of mercy

[00:01:30] Why can't they see

[00:01:32] That a daughter of charity you'll never be

[00:01:38] It's a wicked old game

[00:01:41] That the government plays

[00:01:44] When they treat you like dogs

[00:01:46] Then you must have your day

[00:02:00] It's a telephone vote

[00:02:03] Everyone grab your phones

[00:02:06] All the people dial in

[00:02:08] From their luxury homes

[00:02:12] It was easy to do

[00:02:14] Far too easily done

[00:02:17] Well the thumbs they went down

[00:02:20] It was three against one

[00:02:23] And none of us now can know

[00:02:26] How that felt

[00:02:28] But they strengthened their stance

[00:02:31] And they tightened their belts

[00:02:32] And the papers they all said

[00:02:35] "No beer for christmas"

[00:02:37] It seemed such a shame

[00:02:39] While the nurses sat out

[00:02:43] In the wind and the rain

[00:02:48] Oh the way down the way

[00:02:51] Oh sister of mercy

[00:02:54] Why can't they see

[00:02:57] That a daughter of charity you'll never be

[00:03:02] It's a wicked old game

[00:03:05] That the government plays

[00:03:08] When they treat you like dogs

[00:03:11] Then you must have your day

[00:03:39] Well the girl on the six o'clock

[00:03:43] News looked concerned

[00:03:45] As she told of

[00:03:47] The developments bitter and bold

[00:03:51] But I could not help wonder

[00:03:54] What she got for christmas

[00:03:57] And was there a story

[00:04:00] We hadn't been told

[00:04:03] In the newsroom

[00:04:04] At the breakup the

[00:04:06] Whole thing was fine

[00:04:08] But they never drank beer

[00:04:12] The bastards drank wine

[00:04:15] While down on the pickets

[00:04:18] They cared not for beer

[00:04:20] Just for health just for welfare

[00:04:24] Just for their hard fought careers

[00:04:32] Oh sister of mercy why can't they see

[00:04:38] That a daughter of charity you'll never be

[00:04:44] It's a wicked old game

[00:04:47] That the government plays

[00:04:50] When they treat you like dogs

[00:04:52] Then you must have your day

[00:04:56] When they treat you like dogs

[00:04:58] Then you must have your day

[00:05:07] You will have your day someday
