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