A personal friend of mine penned these words, based on the original song written by Bob Dylan*:
1. Come together 'round people
Wherever you're from
And let's stand together
'Cause our time has come
And accept it that now
We must stand up and fight
If your job and your rights
Are worth savin'
Then you better join us
And stand up for what's right
For the times they are a-changin'
2. Come Wisconsin people
And let's all stand tall
The governor's budget
Will hurt one and all
If we all stand together
Then no one will fall
But if we don't fight back
It's our curtain call
Though we may have lost now
Later on we will win
For the times they are a-changin'
3** Come senators, representatives
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who stalled
There's a battle outside and it's ragin'
It'll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'
4 Come brothers and sisters
Throughout our great state
Stand up to Scott Walker
And his agenda of hate
If we all stand together
We'll have a much better fate
Scott Walker your
Pink slip is comin'
You'll have to leave Madison
And we all can't wait
For the times they are a-changin'
5 The lines have been drawn
And it's time to fight
We'll all stand together
For what we know is right
And we will prevail
We'll show them our might
The order is rapidly fadin'
The present looks bleak
But our future is bright
For the times they are a-changin'
*Supply your own mumbly voice
** Fun fact: This is the same verse as in the original song
***Now to just get Jay to record it....
