The days get very long
Working a full days worth
When the people way up high
Always when asked only lie
The days get very short
When you get a full days rest
And you cant afford to do more than hoard the old
But to make the ends meet you try your best
But be afraid not my dears
Even if rolling down your cheeks there's tears
For we have nothing to lose but our chains
We will struggle and we will fight
All through out the day and night
And emerge victorious
