We're slipping, we're sinking
Don't pay us for thinking
We've lost now, our last rights
In dust now, can't breathe right
We're trained from infancy
Give until you cannot bleed
Endless work, what you deserve
Respect the rights of those you serve
No toil is worth your pay
Your sweat will not betray
Don't fight, endless hours
Daily bread is in our power
For the man
For the state
For the price
The government
You live for love of light
We'll show who isn't right
No time is worth five cents
You know who's innocent
