lyrics

I got another job at the factory
I've been working everyday to feed my family
I tried to go to school, but I dropped out
And now I'm here to stay
And for a scanty wage, the boss is working me like a slave

"Punch in and punch out, and keep up your speed
You'll be fired if your hinder productivity!"
With fancy shoes on his feet
The boss whips an army of sheep
And you'll be pinching your pennies
Working at the factory

James lost his arms in a flying wheel
He got leave without pay and a partial medical deal
But the union did nothing after the ordeal
They're run by the company
And there's no such thing as a free meal

Boy I wish my mind wasn't wreaked in the war
I'd go back to school and wouldn't work here anymore
I'd get a degree and be free
To leave this corporate killing floor
I'd tell my boss to go to Hell!
And I'd waltz out through that door
