I heard today the Union is "fighting":
making shady business with the masters
to get us ten cents.

A dime for my blood
a dime for your sweat
another more for that crying boy
and a last one for our starving souls.

Short is the road of perdition
or was it long the moan
of our misery?

They fight
they scream for our depressing
workers' rights
and make them wrong and worst
furthering an anti-union business climate.
Trade exchange!!

Why don't you tell them no to accept?

A dime for my blood
a hundred grants for the union leader
a dime for your sucked sweat and strength
a million for the masters' laughter that prevents
increases in the minimum wage.
Ja Ja Ja!
But the crying of that boy
is still more strong in my ears.

I rather would not do that "fighting"
I would sing
I would sing
I would sing a song
I would not do "fighting"
I would sing
I would sing
I would sing

I would sing a song:
I rather would not be in the game of "outlaw"
and "protect"
the voluntary card check
process
cause you know isn't premeditated.
Anyway one way or another they play
with your so called "free will"
Ain't free

Anyway I heard today the union is "fighting"
to get us ten cents
and the union leaders are getting
ten grant raises every now and then

A dime for my blood
a dime for your sweat
another more for that crying boy
and a last one for our starving souls

Why don't you tell them not to accept?
