Cobalt
Lyrics and music by Tony Avila
The ion batteries in our cell phones and laptops
Requires a mineral called Cobalt
Which is rich in some of the poorest places in the world
Thousands of
Unregulated
Unmonitored
Mines
Children work like slaves
Without gloves
Without masks
Causeing long-term health problems
Cant afford to eat regularly
Making multinational corporations millions
Suffer in squalor
Consumers unaware
