lyrics

Iron Law of Wages


Flags everywhere
Nowhere to run
Nowhere to run

In a war I’m your spy
You are my secret weapon
You are my secret weapon

In the iron law of wages
You work to live, live to work
And you raise your children to do the same
And you raise your kids to do the same

Just so you can rot in a retirement home
High on pills with your door locked
We must put an end to this unwritten law
The iron law of wages must fall

I don’t want to be part of this
Race of laborers
Shoot me now or let me go, shoot me now or let me be
Shoot me now or let me go
