At Peterloo they fell and died
Those for whom Liberty's price was paid
Now Tomlinson and SOCPA are the theme
Where Freedom's corpse lies in the grave
Lord Liverpool and Captain Burleigh
Who called the Yeomanry to arms
Your heirs - Brown and Ainsworth
call for youthful blood in Afghanistan
And Orator Hunt would blanch with shame
Where blood stained the stones of Peter's Fields
There lie the bones of Socialism's hopes
Trod beneath the hooves of New Labour's cavalry
Read out the names of Peterloo and New Labour's dead -
Freedom, Liberty, Suffrage and the Price of Oil!
