They think that the money is made from up there,
And workers are here for the ride.
Now, when will they realize that we earn the dough?
They need us if they're to survive.

They lay off the workers and prices go up,
They think that they'll now make a profit,
But they do not realize if we're out of work,
There's no one to buy, so why stock it.

We're now unemployed and we're looking for jobs,
But they want to show us the door,
Now money is tight and we watch what we spend,
So who's gonna buy at their store?
