    Cheap labor's got a price
    a price worth dignity
    slave in the field & pick the grapes
    to serve the bourgeoisie.

    Bought and sold like livestock
    their lives they waste away
    work so hard but get so little
    for their honest day.

    No uvas!
    No grapes!
    Cheap labor,
    it rapes!

    Everybody in denial
    Fu#k Nike, Fu#k the Gap
    Charge a $100
    for their $9 crap.

    Peasants in the sweatshops
    property of designer
    boats pull in the harbor
    more FOB's for me to hire.---------------(In the mind of Calvin, Tommy or whoever.)

    No uvas!
    No grapes!
    Cheap labor,
    it rapes!

    Africans, Mexicans,
    Korean, Filipino
    held inside the sweatshops
    like them jails up in Chino.

    The concept of profit
    feels their mind with greed
    they will stop at nothing
    more workers they must breed.

    No uvas!
    No grapes!
    Cheap labor,
    it rapes!
    No uvas!

    I think it would work better as a song.
    \"He\'s an idiot. But he\'s our idiot.\"

    I likes.

    "No uvas!
    No grapes!
    Cheap labor,
    it rapes! " ... would make an excellent protest chant.
