I don't care,
but ai do,

we're going back to penal pay
back to the prisoner's norm
look at your contracts today
they were better before you were born,

they're going to starve us into submission
and they'll ***** us at the same time
and we're told that it's down to..
oh!
the **** they will feed you
before you're ploughed back to the mine

and you'll mine salt all-day
and you'll get salt for pay
but never believe that you are
a legionnaire.
