Manchester belongs to us

It was a lovely day. Manchester Samba Band played for us. We gave away free popcorn (wrapped in leaflets letting people know about the selloff of Piccadilly gardens) and lots and lots of cake. People drew pictures, wrote poems and lazed around in the sun.
We are going to have another Mad Picnic for a Mad World in Piccadilly soon, and we are want to have more on other bits of ripped off land as the summer goes on.

But thats not the way its got to be
People before property
We want a meeting place
And not a traffic jam
Let Mayday speak for all of us
Manchester belongs to us
No to their profits
And their Piccadilly plans

Stop ripping off Public Spaces
