about

My first single from my upcoming and first Bandcamp album release "I PROTEST".

For 2022 International Worker's Day, here's my rock 'n'roll critique of Capitalism!

lyrics

Boss made a dollar, I made a dime
That was a rhyme from a simpler time
Now boss makes a thousand and gives me a cent
When I’m an employee who can’t pay my rent

When the boss makes a million and us workers make jack
That’s when I protest and take my life back

Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime
That’s why I shit on company time
Boss makes a billion, my prospects are grim
Next company party, I’m gonna eat him

When the boss makes a million and us workers make jack
That’s when we riot and take our lives back

We make a penny, the boss makes fifteen
Guess who's in line for the guillotine?
Boss made a dollar, we made a dime,
Til’ we went to his mansion and burned him alive….
