This song is about how workers have been injured, maimed, and died on the job for capitalists. This song highlights how there's already violence inherent to the system of capitalism, though I feel it's impossible to see that message without also realizing that we should not be afraid of violence when opposing the capitalist class in strikes, protests, and other direct action.
