To Be Rich Should Be a Crime

The big boss gets fatter and we stay poor
Now we say no more

To be rich should be a crime
To-be-rich-should-be-a-crime

Where did you get your money sir
How did you get your money girl
Who did you exploit tell me
Who did you steal it from

To be rich should be a crime
To-be-rich-should-be-a-crime

For one man to be rich
Another many must be poor
The big boss don't care for me
He left me dead in aisle 4

To be rich should be a crime
To-be-rich-should-be-a-crime

Who built your houses sir
Who built your schools sir
Who cleaned your table now
Who sewed that suit your wearing

To be rich should be a crime
To-be-rich-should-be-a-crime
To be rich should be a crime
To-be-rich-should-be-a-crime

Throw out the old society
Build a brand new
Build it up

Here on bus stop 6
A woman sits in front of me
It's Penny Girl she's so hardworking
Yet she don't got a dollar to show

To be rich should be a crime
To-be-rich-should-be-a-crime
To be rich should be a crime
To-be-rich-should-be-a-crime

Get all the rich people out here
Get em all out of there
Long live the working class
Long live the workers of the world
Men and women
UNITE
