“Hinky Dinky Parlez-Vous” Karaoke (midi with lyrics).
Lyrics: Anonymous.
Tune: “Mademoiselle from Armentières.”
The bosses are taking it on the chin, parlez-vous,
The bosses are taking it on the chin, parlez-vous,
The bosses are taking it on the chin
Because the strikers won’t give in,
Hinky dinky parlez-vous.
The scabs are having a heck of a time, parlez-vous,
The scabs are having a heck of a time, parlez-vous,
The scabs are having a heck of a time
Trying to cross the picket line,
Hinky dinky parlez-vous.
The boss is shaking at the knees, parlez-vous,
The boss is shaking at the knees, parlez-vous,
The boss is shaking at the knees;
He’s shaking in his BVDs,
Hinky dinky parlez-vous.
We’re going to win the union shop, parlez-vous,
We’re going to win the union shop, parlez-vous,
We’re going to win the union shop;
We’ll clean the floor with a union mop.
Hinky dinky parlez-vous.
We’re staying on the picket line, parlez-vous,
We’re staying on the picket line, parlez-vous,
We’re staying on the picket line
Until we get the boss to sign.
Hinky dinky parlez-vous.
