Sweat Shop Lyrics by Hattie Hatstar

National Treasure

2008

Now listen carefully girls and boys
If you don't put away your toys
Or if you trash your brand-new shoes
Or if you're making too much noise
Your parents might just have enough
And reach the point on which they snap
Then it's the Nike factory for you
It's the Nike factory for you
It's the Nike factory for you
You can work for fifteen hours a day
Making shoes for the world on a very low pay
So some retailer in the west
Can put on pounds inside his vest
I think they call that slavery
I think they call that slavery
It’s the Nike factory for you
If you're a greedy screaming brat
And you keep hassling that cat
Or if you leave your coat behind
Or you refuse to wear that hat
Your parents might just have enough
And reach the point on which they snap
Then watch it or it's Persian rugs for you
Watch it or it's Persian rugs for you
Watch it or it's Persian rugs for you
Ten children locked in one small room
To loose their fingers on the loom
So some fat salesman in the west
Can put on pounds inside his vest
I think they call that slavery
I think they call that slavery
Watch it or it's Persian rugs for you
If you refuse to go to bed
Or clout your best mate round the head
If you don't share those sweeties out
Or if that hamster don't get fed
Your parents might just have enough
And reach the point on which they snap
Then watch it or it's cocoa beans for you
Watch it or it's cocoa beans for you
Watch it or it's cocoa beans for you
A major African industry
More profitable than ivory
Where you can work all day for free
For chocolate that you'll never see
So some fat kiddie in the west
Can put on pounds inside his vest
And his parents can eat chocolate bars
Whilst driving around in fancy cars
I think they call that slavery
I think they call that slavery
Watch it or it's cocoa beans for you
Watch it or it's cocoa beans for you
