Jack: There's change coming once and for all, you makes the front page, and man you is major news.
Jack & David: Tomorrow they'll see what we are,
Jack, David, & Katherine: and sure as the star, we ain't come this far to lose.
Race: HERE THEY COME!!!!
Ensemble: This is the story we needed to write that's been kept outta sight, but no more!
In a few hours by dawn's early light we'll be ready to fight us a war!
This time we're in it to stay! Talk about seizing the day!
Jack: Write it in ink or in blood! It's the same either way!
They're gonna damn well pay!
Ensemble: See old man Pulitzer snug in his bed. He don't care if we're dead or alive.
Three satin pillows are under his head while we's begging for bread to survive.
Joe you can stop counting sheep, we're going to sing ya to sleep!
You got your thugs with their sticks and their slugs!
(Yeah!) But we got a promise to keep!
Jack: Once and for all if they don't mind their manners we'll bleed 'em (Bleed 'em!)
Race: Once and for all we won't carry no banners that don't spell freedom!
Ensemble: Finally we's raising the stakes!
This time whatever it takes!
This time the union awaits!
Once and for all! (Come on boys!)
This is for kids shining shoes on the street with no shoes on their feet every day!
This is for guys sweating blood in the shops while their bosses and cops look away!
I'm seeing kids standing tall, glaring and raring for a brawl!
Armies of guys who are sick of the lies getting ready to rise to the call!
Once and for all they'll be blood on the wall if they doubt us!
They think their running this town, but this town will shut down without us!
Ten thousands kids in the square (Ten thousands kids in the square)
Ten thousands fists in the air (Ten thousands fists)
Joe you's is gonna play fair once and for all!
Once and for all (Once and for all)
Once and for all (Once and for all)
Once and for all (Once and for all)
There's change coming once and for all,
Your getting to old to need to keep holding on!
A new world is gunnin' for you and Joe we is too!
To once and for all you're gone!
Once and for all (Once and for all)
Once and for all!
