Ya-Ha-Ha Ho Ho Ho Shipped your job to Mexico But we got plans for all of you to re-train
Pit the whole world against each other For who will work for the lowest wage The rest of you can die As epidemics rage
Worked hard all your life Now you must go on line And stare all day At a little plastic screen
Electronic plantation Electronic plantation
Same old job Now you're just a temp Less pay, no benefits No raise, no vacation Or sick leave days
Chain the slaves to the oars Faster, faster, row some more! In carpel tunnel caverns Til you break
We monitor you all Every time you leave your chair Or talk on the phone One minute overtime At the toilet And you're fired
Electronic plantation Electronic plantation
Only use we've left for you Is burn you at both ends Locked in the research triangle Shirtwaist fire's flames Lot's of people need your job And you can be replaced Replaced
Replaced Unemployed and overqualified
Strikers who gave their lives Fighting for basic human rights That don't mean nothing anymore
Got you back down on the floor Through the WTO Rich get richer Poor get poorer
Factory or PHD You are all termites now Laptop is your ball and chain Til we downsize you away Shop at home Is your reward Your best friend is a mouse
