Work Sees You Dead

A sign that casts the longest shadow
It reads works sets you free
Nether a politians  prejudice
or a capitalists pay packet 
these  will not set you free
The cremation chimmney 
will still burn bright 
Whether a life cut short 
by genocide or work
theres no escape
for you and me 
the language of persecution
Knows no borders 
colour nor religon 
Arbeit macht frei 

Arbeit sieht dich tot
