”Occupy with Aloha” APECホノルルの晩さん会をoccupyしたミュージシャン  「おれたちのほうが多いぞ」

 ニューヨークでoccupyを掲げた抵抗者が警官隊によって公園から追われているその時、オバマがホスト役を務めたAPECホノルル首脳会議の晩餐会が一人のミュージシャンによってoccupyされた。歌手の名前はMANAKA、ハワイでは有名な歌手だという。彼はステージに立つとやおらジャケットの前をはだけた。現れたのは「Occupy with Aloha」 (アロハで占拠)と> 書いたTシャツ。各国首脳の前で、「We are the many」という作ったばかりの> 曲を披露した。(日刊ベリタ編集部)

おれたちはストリートを、法廷を、お前らのオフィス 
を占拠する。 
おれたちが多いぞ 
お前らはほんの少数だ 
 
と歌っている。 
 
ホノルルのあるAPEC批判の市民グループ「APEC SUCKS!」のウエブサイトでは以下のように報じている。 
 
APEC WORLD LEADERS DINNER GETS OCCUPIED! 
 
歌詞の全文を紹介する。 
 
We Are The Many 
 
Ye come here, gather 'round the stage 
The time has come for us to voice our rage 
Against the ones who've trapped us in a cage 
To steal from us the value of our wage 
 
From underneath the vestiture of law 
The lobbyists at Washington do gnaw 
At liberty, the bureaucrats guffaw 
And until they are purged, we won't withdraw 
 
We'll occupy the streets 
We'll occupy the courts 
We'll occupy the offices of you 
Till you do 
The bidding of the many, not the few 
 
Our nation was built upon the right 
Of every person to improve their plight 
But laws of this Republic they rewrite 
And now a few own everything in sight 
 
They own it free of liability 
They own, but they are not like you and me 
Their influence dictates legality 
And until they are stopped we are not free 
 
We'll occupy the streets 
We'll occupy the courts 
We'll occupy the offices of you 
Till you do 
The bidding of the many, not the few 
 
You enforce your monopolies with guns 
While sacrificing our daughters and sons 
But certain things belong to everyone 
Your thievery has left the people none 
 
So take heed of our notice to redress 
We have little to lose, we must confess 
Your empty words do leave us unimpressed 
A growing number join us in protest 
 
We occupy the streets 
We occupy the courts 
We occupy the offices of you 
Till you do 
The bidding of the many, not the few 
 
You can't divide us into sides 
And from our gaze, you cannot hide 
Denial serves to amplify 
And our allegiance you can't buy 
 
Our government is not for sale 
The banks do not deserve a bail 
We will not reward those who fail 
We will not move till we prevail 
 
We'll occupy the streets 
We'll occupy the courts 
We'll occupy the offices of you 
Till you do 
The bidding of the many, not the few 
 
We'll occupy the streets 
We'll occupy the courts 
We'll occupy the offices of you 
Till you do 
The bidding of the many, not the few 
 
We are the many 
You are the few
