What Are We Afraid Of?

CHORUS
What are we afraid of, afraid of, afraid of?
What are we afraid of?
It’s NOT the terrorists!

When hospitals are closing down
Though ER’s all are full
And home care nursing’s down the drain
They’re no more plugs to pull, SO~

CHORUS

When governments cut services
And then use all our cries
To give them an excuse to day
They “have to privatize.” SO~

CHORUS

When money is the raison d’etre
How can we hope for care
That does not all the corners cut
To leave us hanging there? SO ~

CHORUS

When greed and profit rule the land
What chance is there that we
Will keep our social safety net
Our health and dignity, SO~

CHORUS

Just getting sick is bad enough
Without more worry too
‘Bout “how to pay” and “who can help”
“What am I going to do?” SO~

LAST CHORUS:
What are YOU afraid of, afraid of, afraid of
What are YOU afraid of?
IS it the terrorists?
