New page

<poem>

Let me tell you a story
about the Big Dig Project
And the tragic and fateful way
How a crooked highway project
ended up robbin every family
Who uses the MBTA

The people got burned
While the bankers they learned
'bout an easy way to get rich
Just restructure the debt
Charge big fees for your bets
And make the people pay

Bechtel did the job
While the poor working slob
Ended up paying for all their mistakes
The highway its leaking
The people be freakin
Since they billed the MBTA

The people got burned
While the bankers they learned
'bout an easy way to get rich
Just restructure the debt
Charge big fees for your bets
And make the people pay

Enough is enough
The people are saying
Dont be wreckin the MBTA
Your games aint working
And we aint takin
No more cuts to the MBTA

We will never be burned
We will never be turned
To a world without the T
We will ride forever
'neath the streets of Boston
Public trains they oughta be free.

Now you citizens of Boston
Don't you think its a scandal
That people have to pay and pay
While the banks get bailed out
The riders get sold out
No more cuts to the MBTA

We will never be burned
We will never be turned
To a world without the T
We will ride forever
'neath the streets of Boston
Public trains they oughta be free.
