| My body hurts all over but I must keep on working
|
| To meet all my quotas or I may face the sack
|
| Stretching, crouching, reaching, bending
|
| Stretching, crouching, reaching, bending
|
| Bedding and power tools, tablets and football shirts
|
| Perfume and Blu-Ray discs, jewelry and dehumidifiers
|
| I am desperate for the toilet
|
| But if I go, I’ll miss my targets
|
| All I can do is pee in a bottle
|
| They treat us like animals here
|
| There’s nothing left of me
|
| By the time I shuffle homeward
|
| On the early morning train
|
| To eat a little breakfast and sleep a while
|
| Before it starts again
|
| Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh, ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh

| A lady in her mid to late fifties keeled over
|
| And started convulsing and frothing at the mouth
|
| Three hundred units per hour
|

|
| A gentleman who spoke little English
|
| Started to scream at the top of his lungs
|
| No one could understand what he was getting at
|
| Everyone stared ahead and kept working until
|
| Someone came from on high to escort him from the building

| I’ve been given compulsory overtime over the holidays
|
| Now I can’t go to see my family in Galashiels 'til the new year
|
| There’s nothing left of me by the time I shuffle homeward
|
| On the early morning train
|
| To eat a little breakfast and sleep a while
|
| Before it starts again
|
| There’s more, there has to be
|
| More to life than killing yourself to survive
|
| One day, I’m going to run my own cafe
|
| Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh, ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh |
