Sweatshops are commonly thought to be a relic of history

But they've always existed alongside capitalist economies

Exploitation built these nations and they've not changed their ways

Their corporate global agenda ensures that slavery is here to stay

WTO, IMF, World Bank, and "Free Trade" institutions

Increasing the power of the ruling class and corporations

Destroying the planet and enslaving populations

Accelerating the process of global domination

The lawless pirates of the New Global economy

Spreading sweatshop production and rampant inequality

A competition among brutal Nation States

To enslave their own citizens for the corporate parasites

The process of creating an enslaved, dependant country

A science worked out to aid multinational industry

The first step is to destroy the independant local economies

Carried out in collaboration with local puppet authorities

Then in come the filth who will benefit from the destruction

Corporations seeking the cheapest means of production

The garment industry is at the crest of the wave

Ravaging the earth and its people for the latest fashions of of the day

World markets opened to free, unfettered trade

Nations with the least regulations are the ones who make the grade

Corporations placing manufacturing plants and factories

Where women and children will work up to 84 hours per week

People tricked into bondage for less than one dollar a day

Killing those who fight for better conditions or an increase in pay

Developing countries competing for western corporate patronage

The major assets are lax pollution, safety laws and poverty wages

Now totalitarian governments are forcing people to work without pay

Using the desperation of the third world to circumvent a "living wage"

Politicians entertaining the business class of the west

Seeking pay-offs and power at their population's expense

The host country becomes plagued with disease and prostitution

Poverty, death, and drug addiction is the worker's retribution

The natural resources of the country are exported to Europe and the West

While the general population eats the garbage that is left

Some people believe such conditions to be worthy and necessary

Globalists say it's part of a developing nation's journey to prosperity

Yet these countries had all the resources to live healthy and free

But all was destroyed and restricted to create the new economy

And when these companies find a more cheap and easy way

They close the factory doors and covertly move away

Leaving famine and war and a thousand lonely graves

The slave drivers disappear and nobody knew thir names

But slowley the truth is beginning to find its way

And now we know the names of those who are to blame

Those who offer slave labour are those who create the need

Investors, shaeholders who will drag you to you're knees

Fire and flame

To burn the filth away

Fire and flame

We know who is to blame
