lyrics

Antebellum!
as a slave you were a treasure
the largest source of wealth
worth more than all factories
farmland or gold itself
a whole race of chattel, labor filled our banks aplenty
but now that you're equal, they won't loan you one penny


The slaves were beautiful, worth more than gold
we insured them in case they broke or got stole
but as free people they hold no value at all
but working in prison picking them cotton balls

Lincoln didn't free the slaves, he created the homeless.

No more house, no land, no food, no payoff. you're welcome
now get a job.

more recently!
as a citizen, you're useless, just a
cracker wage deflator , but
Chinese took your job, you got
fired from being surplus labor
a race of free people, whose wealth is five percent
of the former slave-owners, to whom you now pay rent

The slaves were beautiful, worth more than gold
we insured them in case they broke or got stole
but as free people they hold no value at all
but working in prison picking them cotton balls
