REMOVED LYRICS:

Apple’s largest manufacturer, Foxconn, has installed nets to prevent workers from committing suicide.
A rash of suicides in 2010 at Foxconn’s Shenzhen plant in China resulted in 14 worker deaths.
Workers at Foxconn's Chengdu plant were forced to sign a contract forbidding them from committing suicide.
But workers are still killing themselves. One jumped to his death as recently as August 2015.

LINER NOTES:

This is probably the best-known horror story about Apple and there have been quite a few songs named after it. Apple's counter-argument is that the factory is so huge, its suicide rate is lower than that of society at large.
