protest in song

well obviously working in a factory in this time was noo good for the workers. in the song of the shirt he described all the bad stuff he goes through at work. he repeats the phrase "ork, work , work" a couple of times meaning all he does is work and through the song he goes through all the things he expierences while at work like he says work work work till his brain begins to swim and with fingers weary and worn, with eye lids heavy and red . like this is crazy stuff. all this "technology" was new too them so they didnt really know how to handle all of it. they had no labor laws or no safety codes soo not a good time. he wrote it in a form of protest which i think is interesting but it wont do anything unless he gets a bunch of his friends to protest with him and with these working conditions it probably wouldnt be too hard to get people to protest with you. i also think its interesting because people still protest in thier lyrics like in the 80's and 90's rap groups lie N.W.A. made a career by writing songs about protest about how blacks are treated and how they feel about the police and the greatest rap song of all time Fight The Power by Public Enemy is about how they arent happy with america but a lot of famous songs through out history were about how the artist wasnt happy about something. but people have been doing this forever, before recording studios and record deals.
