foxconn workers should unionize
they're just folks like me and you
8 hour days and paid a living wage
with breaks and sick days too
they shouldn't have to sleep
stacked 30 to a room
shouldn't have to suffer so that we can consume
what am I gonna do about it?
what am i gonna do?
will I swear off this computer
that I'm now writing this on?
will I pay more for american made
now that I see what's right and wrong?
will I vote with my wallet and hit Apple where it hurts
and every company that puts profits first
is that what i'm gonna do about it?
is that what i'm gonna do?
then my shopping budget
would all but disappear
black friday'd be buy nothing day
oh wait, it's been that way for years
it's larger than one company
we all feed the system give it what it needs
so what are we gonna do about it
what are we gonna do?
our current economic system
has no room for human cost
the tolls it takes and the backs it breaks
and the lives that are lost
we think it doesn't exist if we just ignore it
it doesn't show up in quarterly earnings reports
but what are we gonna do?
tell me what are we gonna do?
we feel outrage and disgust
and we gape in disbelief
but where'd we think our stuff came from?
magical fairy factories?
you can act surprised but deep down you knew
the fact is you don't know what to do
i don't know what to do about it
i don't know what to do
