Have you ever heard the song “Sunday, Bloody Sunday” by U2? I rewrote it about Monday, Bloody Monday (January 22, 1973 – Roe vs Wade):
Monday, Bloody Monday
I can’t believe the news today
Oh, I can’t close my eyes
And make it go away
How long…
How long must we sing this song
How long, how long…
’cause tonight…we can be as one
Tonight…
Broken dream under the doctor’s feet
Bodies thrown into the clinic’s sink
Won’t you heed the battle call?
It puts your back up
Puts your back up against the wall
Monday, Bloody Monday
Monday, Bloody Monday
Monday, Bloody Monday
And the battle’s just begun
There’s many lost, but tell me who has won
The trench is dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, fathers
Torn apart
Monday, Bloody Monday
Monday, Bloody Monday
How long…
How long must we sing this song
How long, how long…
’cause tonight…we can be as one
Tonight…tonight…
Monday, Bloody Monday
Monday, Bloody Monday
Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your fears away
Oh, wipe your fears away
Stand up and cry today
(Monday, Bloody Monday)
Oh, raise your voice today
(Monday, Bloody Monday)
Monday, Bloody Monday (Monday, Bloody Monday)
Monday, Bloody Monday (Monday, Bloody Monday)
And it’s true we are blind
When fact is fiction and silence reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die
(Monday, Bloody Monday)
The real battle just begun
Let’s claim the victory that Jesus Won
Monday Bloody Monday
Monday Bloody Monday…
Monday, Bloody Monday
