at will

the Robber Baron’s demand

Always loyalty from the bottom is the Robber Baron’s demand.
Giving the best of ourselves, it’s something they don’t understand.
At the pleasure of the master on top of their hill.
Wet from the threat that your job can be taken at will.

Always loyalty from the bottom is the Robber Baron’s demand.
Don’t think to organize or they’ll remove their generous hand.
Be quiet and obedient if you wish for that monthly refill.
You mean nothing to them when you work at will.

Always loyalty from the bottom is the Robber Baron’s demand.
Coming together for collective power is the thing they cannot stand.
Don’t think, just do, it doesn't matter your skill.
You are just a tool to be discarded at will.

Always loyalty is the Robber Baron’s demand.
Give over your soul is their final command.
Now stand over there and be really still.
You forever work at their will.
