Motörhead - Just 'Cos You Got The Power
https://youtu.be/rJrCBuX4Xac

"You bastards might be clever
Got it mapped out in black and white
But you remember you can never
Teach a dog to stand upright

Just 'cos you got the power
That don't mean you got the right"

Body Count - No Lives Matter
https://songwhip.com/body-count/no-lives-matter

"We say that "Black Lives Matter"
Well truthfully they really never have
No one ever really gave a fuck
Just read your bullshit history books
But honestly it ain't just black
It's yellow, it's brown, it's red
It's anyone who ain't got cash
Poor whites that they call trash"

It’s a to for .

First song that came to my mind and so fitting for the very important vote the Aussies have to cast on October 14th on the following:

A Proposed Law: to alter the Constitution to recognise the First Peoples of Australia by establishing an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Voice. Do you approve this proposed alteration?

How is this even a question that needs to be voted on. I do hope, all you, that can vote, will strongly vote with YES!

It’s time, the following song is from 1987, for fucks sake, it is time to start doing the right thing.

“The time has come
To say fair′s fair
To pay the rent
To pay our share”

Edson Velandia is a Colombian artist from Santander that makes very political, very satirical music.

This song was a bit of an anthem in the big protests that gripped the country 2 years ago. In it Velandia wonders why is it that rich people want to get everything for free, while we build the cities, cook the food, drive the buses, grow the food, etc.

Class consciousness.

In this one Edson Velandia and Adriana Lizcano tell about a time the devil came as a politician but was defeated by a guy called Juvenal.

Explicit lyrics, in Spanish.

I'm a bit conflicted about posting Billy Bragg these days but it's relevant both to today's theme and to life more widely in these harrowing times.

Okay, so the theme for #JukeboxFridayNight is #ShowOfHands / #HaveASay (political songs). I think this counts, being an anti-war protest rendition of the national anthem.

The only time I heard an electric guitar mimic bombs and guns.

Hello, people!

Ooh, it's Friday, and for JukeboxFridayNight the theme is elections / democracy / having a say.

Part of this song was a UselessQuote on 15 Sep –

"Well, I'm gonna tell you fascists
You may be surprised
People in this world
Are getting organized
You're bound to lose
You fascists bound to lose."

Woody Guthrie, "All You Fascists", aka "All You Fascists Bound To Lose"), (1942, recorded 1944)

Sorry but so far the songs I can think of are fairly cynical

The Who - Won't Get Fooled Again

"Then I'll get on my knees and pray we don't get fooled again"

I can't hear this one without thinking about CSI: Miami, it was used as the theme song

It might say it's about separation of religion and government, but I think it covers much more than that.

Rock the boat. Indeed.
