The Hudson Falcons - Labor Day lyrics
They don't need you around here anymore They made all their money now they're closing up the door You should feel lucky that you've had a job for so long They say you should have saved while you were still working so suck it up and be strong They asked you to take a 12% reduction in pay You said that you would do it but then they closed down anyway Their 7 digit salaries never were at risk Although the company was in the red their bonuses were never affected So get the family together this is a holiday Put the burgers on the barbecue and pray it don't rain The tough times are over cause the bad times are here I pray we don't lose those I wish I could escape just drowning in my beer Never fear - Labor Day What they did was really bad, the way they did it even it worse Last week they said they weren't gonna close down and that's for sure You had no warning no way to prepare Always lived paycheck to paycheck how can you live if a paycheck is not there Just a message on the answering machine, a double lock on the door No concern for their workers, no respect or dignity for their work Not even the courtesy of a couple of weeks heads up The message on the answering machine "Happy holidays you have no job" There are no jobs left in this town at least none where you can raise your kids All the factories they left town, all the old man bars hopped up in their stead A couple beers and some friends can help you forget They know what you're going through every family in town has gone through it (and are still going through it) You hear about it so often you become desensitized Everyday 2,000 have been laid off and another 500 have been downsized Its thousands of families who have to find a way To survive another Labor Day |
