This economy has been taken under siege   By an industry that's been dictated militarily   Dependent on oil under foreign soil   Like a locomotive waiting to feel the water boil      And our jobs in new technology are going over seas   To bangalore and Tokyo and down to old Paris   If you're looking for job security look where your   Nation's spending all of your taxation         Ye ne sui par le beasuasie, we are the proletariate   The house can't stand without the foundation   Even though you bury it (Even though you bury it)      And even though my hand...   You wouldn't stop to shake it if you saw me on the street      And we haven't changed a thing since 1944   The business men in office make a killing with the war   Rosie you don't have to rivet anymore   But your living wage is what you're fighting for      Father's going to guarantee to build a better bomb   If uncle sam will guarantee a paycheck every month   Brother's in the infantry so he can go to college   After his 4th and final tour (Just one more tour)      And go ahead and call me a Communist   Because I care for the welfare of my people   I'm born your equal but don't you think it's evil   To own islands of property in a sea of starving   Property in a sea of starving people   Property against my people
