lyrics

will my life get any better?
i wonder
as i gaze out
at this gloomy blackness

they make us work here
they make us eat here
they make us sleep here
but that is not enough for

sawdust
minimum wage
shouldn’t there be laws against this?
sawdust
not even minimum wage
shouldn’t there be laws?

it’s awful
terrible
revolting
disgusting

quit taking advantage of me
quit taking advantage of me
your optimism has no place here

this is nothing
like the lemonade stand
of my childhood

no, this is nothing
like the lemonade stand

are you kidding me?
are you kidding me?
we deserve much more than this
we’d be fools not to resist

quit taking advantage of me
quit taking advantage of me
your optimism has no place here
quit taking advantage of me
quit taking advantage of me
i reach for hope, but i only find fear

you have to know your rights
before you fight
