We’re fed up with TEP

and the corrupt ACC !

We just want a public owned

e-lec-tric u-tili-ty!

TEP keeps lyin’

The ACC does too!

We just want a u-til-i-ty

owned by me-e and you!

Solar is the cheapest

of all energies!

But TEP doesn’t like it ‘cause

it cuts their profits, you see!

TEP’s in-sis-tence

on foss-il fuels and gas

uses TONS of our water,

which is dryin’ up pretty fast!

Mo-no-po-ly u-til-i-ties

are monsters from the past!

That’s where TEP belongs.

Let’s send it the-ere at last!

A public owned u-til-i-ty

would save us lots of dough!

Not to mention our wa-a-ter!

Public Power’s the wa-ay to go!

Tell our Mayor and Council

to put it up for a vote

on the ballot this yea-ear

so we don’t mi-iss the boat!

PROFIT-FREE ELECTRICITY!!!
