lyrics

If nobody pays for it, no one gets paid for it
and who can afford to go unpaid but the rich?
An unpaid internship is not an opportunity, it’s a risk,
a risk for those without a bedroom in a family home
where they can stay rent-free
whilst you bleed them to the bone
I’m sorry this job is only available to those
who can afford to go a month without income
Can’t you see? Can’t you see?
When you open the gates to your massive company do you want a CV?
or would the deeds to a trust fund prove more necessary?
You may only have this work experience if you can afford to work for free
Can’t you see? Can’t you see?
How this prevents the poor from opportunities?
Your reputation is not currency!
Do you know how it feels when the door is shut?
When there’s no feasible way at all of moving up?
When every job requires experience and that always is given to someone well off
Without a dime, how cruel it is to have dreams
When they’ve sewn up every possibility
