[Lyric] Tighten Up Your Wig (Billy Bragg)

There is power in a union
A union between two people
And their fruits, the family

When you're raising a family
You're raising a consciousness can't you see?

When you're raising a family
You're raising a consciousness can't you see?

Raise up your family
Not through intimidation but through liberation
A child doesn't start to learn at school
In family life teaches him or her the rules

When you're raising a family
You're raising a consciousness can't you see?

When you're raising a family
You're raising a consciousness can't you see?
(Think about it)

You have to educate from the outset
You can't buy it at no factory outlet
So step off and tighten up your wife

Rave up Woody Dee
Heal thyself
Rave up

When you're raising a family you're
Raising a consciousness can't you see

When you're raising a family
You're raising a consciousness can't you see

When you're raising a family
You're raising a consciousness can't you see?

When you're raising a family
You're raising a consciousness can't you see?

(Think about it)
Heal thyself
