DON'T GIVE UP, ALCIDES For every job, so many men So many men no-one needs

Alcides Santos(*), desempregado e activista do Movimento Sem Emprego, escreveu uma carta ao Provedor de Justiça, onde invoca o DIREITO DE RESISTÊNCIA consignado no artigo 21º da Constituição, e anuncia a sua decisão de deixar de pagar impostos.

Though I saw it all around
Never thought that I could be affected
Thought that we'd be the last to go
It is so strange the way things turn

Got to walk out of here
I can't take anymore
Going to stand on that bridge
Keep my eyes down below
Whatever may come
And whatever may go
That river's flowing
That river's flowing

Moved on to another town
Tried hard to settle down
For every job, so many men
So many men no-one needs

Don't give up
'Cause you have friends
Don't give up
You're not the only one
Don't give up
No reason to be ashamed
Don't give up
You still have us
Don't give up now
We're proud of who you are
Don't give up
You know it's never been easy
Don't give up
'Cause I believe there's a place
There's a place where we belong
