Away in a sweatshop, where no one can see
the immigrant seamstresses work constantly.
Conditions are awful, the pay is absurd
the boss he will fire them, if they say a word.

Away in a factory, an ocean away
young girls make shoes for a dollar a day.
But please don’t complain ‘bout such exploitation
‘cause this factory’s in a Most Favored Nation.

Away in the Congress, the Senators fat
count their PAC dollars, pass NAFTA and GATT.
They couldn’t care less about workers in need
They’ve traded their conscience to service their greed.
