They wake up every morning
Before the light of day.
Having to go to work,
There's no time for play.
They're treated unfairly,
And being paid low wages.
Paid less than adults,
Because of their ages.
There's no time for school,
They don't have an eucation.
Don't know their ABS's.
What a frustration.
These unfair conditions,
Not suited for kids,
Should really be stopped,
But the law doesn't forbid.
They're treated unfairly,
And being paid low wages.
Paid less than adults,
Because of their ages.
Their health is affected,
dying quite young.
Bosses so heartless.
Children dying of Black Lung.
They work such long hours,
With very little pay,
Not recognized for their work,
And having no say.
These poor little children
Work in the street
In the bitter cold,
Walking on their little bare feet.
They're treated unfairly,
And being paid low wages.
Paid less than adults,
Because of their ages.
Child Labor is such a crime.
Do something about it.
Save children from misery;
We have to commit...
This is a very famous cartoon. It is showing a boss eating his children workers. Many of these bosses treated children with no respect. Their work was never aprecciated, and they were payed with unfair low wages. This cartoon is showing how the children have no way out. In reality, children had no other choice but to work, since their families needed the extra money.
