Lyric:
they say our value is merely economic
i say they sure are sounding histrionic
they say a worker must be self-sufficient
i say let’s see corps be half as proficient
I have to admit it’s increasingly ironic
How all wage payers call themselves friends
But how they gleefully fuck you ain’t platonic
Nor to mention how they treat you when it ends
like ants and grasshoppers all over again
keep us fallin’ down ’cause if we get up we win
whether it’s late stage or you call it stage four
no one mistakes when death stands in the door
when the balance is gone then comes the gore
labor’s revolt? force settles score
all history speaks of the silent complicity
from which ever springs — incessant toxicity
a rational, reasonable, and human ask
receive equitable wage to perform any task
in prosperity, be kindred, and everyone bask
that all humans drink from plenitude’s flask
greedy green chains that bind you and me
create and set the bridle called dependency
dictate all our lives through ‘suitability’
and this is why we call it a wage slavery
wage slavery ultimate might makes right
wage slavery kill innovation’s flight
wage slavery the injustice ignites
wage slavery a human pox and blight
