The Day After May Day

What is the point, if it yields no change
They say we have rights, but do we at all?
The workers can march or make a protest
They can ask for a raise and perform labor
If they unionize they've become the foe
Because the factory owners realize
And the wealthy people know
Without human hands
The world would stop
Without the sweat of many
Without the expertise of the shop
There'd be nothing
For the raise of five pennies
The owners believed
That their factories would end
Their world would stop turning
The machines would not run
Because the day would happen
With less money in their own pockets
Even if more work would be done
