Current mood:  rebellious

9 to 5

I'm a worker I'm a working man from 9 to 5... 9 to 5

When I wake I think of mouths to feed, bills to pay, until I sleep

After working like a workingman to stay alive... stay alive

And I forget that I am sometime

Now I've been working for the minimum wage while my boss just gave himself a raise

And I see his brand new car on my daughter's hungry face

And I feel the hunger of the workingman from 9 to 5... 9 to 5

Knowing the sweat off my back that car did buy

I'm a worker I'm a working man from 9 to 5... 9 to 5

When I wake I think of mouths to feed, bills to pay, until I sleep

After working like a workingman to stay alive... stay alive

And I forget that I am sometime

WORK 

steal sem paper

drink sem coffee

watch the drain water fall,

write this. 

these old men

through the window of the bakery on Cherokee

time is beating the shit out of them.

you can see it in their eyebrows

the way they turn and walking

look          like time

is beating the shit out of them. 
 

Well I don't mind working listen to what I mean

There's a difference between work and slavery

I just want the fruits of my labor

To come back to me
 

I'm a worker I'm a working man from 9 to 5... 9 to 5

When I wake I think of mouths to feed, bills to pay, until I sleep

After working like a workingman to stay alive... stay alive

And I forget that I am sometime                  

 

     The working class and the employing class have nothing in common. There can be no peace so long as hunger and want are found among millions of the working people and the few, who make up the employing class, have all the good things of life. Between these two classes a struggle must go on until the workers of the world organize as a class, take possession of the means of production, abolish the wage system, and live in harmony with the Earth. www.iww.org UNITE & FIGHT!

Read: Emma Goldman and Dorothy Day, two luminaries of class struggle, and soldiers in this life long war for love.
