about
"Exploited", overworked, underpaid, underappreciated? Join the club! Employers and industries have been yanking our chains forever. This hard rock homage to the Scottish punk band 'The Exploited' is not a punk song, or about the band, but shares the same sentiments.
lyrics
You wanted honest work and a decent wage, now you’re wearing golden handcuffs and you’re in a cage
Going to that job every day after day, diminishing your soul so you can bring home the pay
Totally frustrated and you feel the pinch, 10 years the corporate ladder hasn’t moved an inch
Got you by the balls, they know they do, if you miss one more payment your family has no roof
Exploited
Without your health insurance you could die in the street, or just sit in emergency and be treated like meat
Heaven help you if your child needs pills, without insurance coverage you’ll be eating those bills
Prey on your guilt and target your fear, to keep the profit margin growing year after year
Careful what you say, don’t step out of line, just stay under their thumb cause there’s so little time
Exploited
Some are in the movies, and some making shoes, those children don’t know better they will die by our rules.
Even if you’re poor, doesn’t mean you’re a slave, labouring for nothing all the way to your grave
Exploited
