076 - Match 16 2024 - Life in the Sandwich factory

life in the sandwich factory ain’t so bad
the work is long, but I make my daily bread
the conditions are foul, but I cannot feel sad
splitting other men’s loaves, watching butter spread

watching robots peeling slices of the ham
and the rubber cheese flopping down to the slice
outside here it’s misery, get what one can
for the pay, and the heat, it’s my sacrifice

life in the sandwich factory is just that:
life in the sense that I am still living here
with nothing to hope for, I choose to stand pat
counting off my days, till my days disappear
