Poison me with carcinogenic fumes
Make me wash your dishes mop your floors
Lift crates carry cartons deliver goods
Put me in harms way
All for minimum wage
Weekends the only salvage
Fucking and fighting in substandard housing
Paying exorbitant rent
So you can use us to man conveyor belts
Staple frames extrude extract excrete
Barely able to pay bills let alone eat
We wear the uniform you give us
Answer to arsehole managers
And go home to drink ourselves to death
Because the colour of the collar we wear
Determines who shall be slave and master
And when the leash pulls we give
Wishing death or liberty were faster
