lyrics

In this Company Town it’s hard to get bored
When we can head on down to the Company Store, but
They raised the prices when they raised our wages, so
There’s really not much here we can afford (yeah, yeah)

In this Company Town all the streets stay clean, and
The security guards, well they’re not that mean
At least if you’ve got the right documentation
Thank the CEO for my occupation (yeah, yeah)

In this Company Town every worker’s in debt
And we live to work and will work till we’re dead
But it’s hard to believe in the Company Dream
When this Company Town is always painted red (yeah, yeah)

In this Company Town, well you’ve gotta stay grounded
We’ve grown so large since the day we were founded
Generations of families grown up in this Town
Working hard to make our own way out (yeah, yeah)

In this Company Town my friends got let go
Along with half the folks ‘round here I know
In this Company Town I’ll work till I bleed
Then take on another shift so it don’t happen to me (yeah, yeah)

From this Company Town I will soon set out
I’ll hitch a ride anywhere any day now
And I promise you won’t see me me comin’ back around

In this Company Town we’re all working to death
In this Company Town there are no jobs left
We salute the Logo, we know though, we’re solo
When it all breaks down in this Company Town
