[Verse]
A E
Don't trust 'em as far
F#m D E
As you can throw 'em
A E
Because as strong as you may be
F#m D E
You won't be able to move 'em an inch
[Verse]
A E
But you don't have to believe me
F#m D
Go ahead and be the corporate stooge
E
That they trained you to be
A E F#m D E
And then you'll see what you get for your loyalty
[Verse]
A E
They call it, 'Down sizing'
F#m D E
But that's just a backhanded saying
A E
For the phrase, 'We're gonna screw you
F#m D E
Until you're down on your knees'
[Verse]
A E
And you better not try to complain
F#m D E
Because there's another hundred stiffs like you
A
All who'd plead, I'd kiss your ass just for a chance
E F#m D E
To be a whore to your company
[Verse]
A E
You see it every day, everywhere
F#m D E
On the TV screen
A E
Each time a different face or family
F#m D E
But it's always the same
[Verse]
A
"We worked here all our lives
E
Gave them everything we had
F#m D E
And now they say they're gonna move the factory
A E F#m D E
To a Third World country where the labour is cheap
[Bridge]
E F#m D
But the fact, my friend, that you don't see
E F#m D
Is the money you spend on the goods they make
E F#m D
Supports their methods of abuse on the Third World scene
E F#m D
And in your very own backyard, yes, your country
[Verse]
A E F#m D E
So I won't be the consumer that they want me to be
A E F#m D E
Because the goods I own aren't going to set me free
A E F#m D E
So I won't buy that crap they want to sell to me
A E F#m
Because the goods I own won't set anyone free
