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?
