The Chemical Worker's Song

And it's go, boys go They'll time your every breath And everyday you're in this place You're two days nearer death But you go Well a process man am I, and I'm tellin' you no lie Oh, I can breath among the fumes that trail across the sky There's thunder all around me and there's poison in the air There's a lousy smell that smacks of hell and dust all in me hair And it's go, boys, go They'll time your every breath And everyday you're in this place You're two days nearer death But you go Well, I've worked among the spinners and I breathe the oily smoke I've shoveled up the gypsum and it nigh on makes you choke I've stood knee-deep in cyanide, got sick with caustic burn Been workin' rough, I've seen enough to make your stomach turn And it's go, boys, go They'll time your every breath And everyday you're in this place You're two days nearer death But you go There's overtime and bonus, opportunities galore The young men like their money and they all come back for more But soon you're knockin' on and you look older than you should For every bob made on the job you'll pay with flesh and blood And it's go, boys, go And time your every breath And everyday you're in this place You're two days nearer death But you go Well a process man am I, and I'm tellin' you no lie Oh, I can breath among the fumes that trail across the sky There's thunder all around me and there's poison in the air There's a lousy smell that smacks of hell and dust all in me hair And it's go, boys, go They'll time your every breath And everyday you're in this place You're two days nearer death And it's go, boys, go They'll time your every breath And everyday you're in this place You're two days nearer death But you go
