Another Way

people do not live at all
are dead and were never alive
people do not live at all
are dead and were never alive
they worked ten days a week
and were only paid for five!
hard is the fortune of all mankind
always controlled and confined
hard is the fortune of all mankind
always controlled and confined
then slaves to their wives
the rest of their lives!
we are askin' one another
as we pass the time of day
why workin' man resort to arms
to get their proper day
there’s no answer, people
god is in another way!
