Down By Law Factory Day Lyrics

Factory Day Lyrics

The working man is in my head now 



cause in this world we're all together 



trapped in a world he never made 



it's a steel and concrete place - that lasts forever 



and no one smiles - it's the working class 



who's got time for sympathy? 



he sees reality, it makes him close his eyes 



wakes up in the morning and he feels cold 



makes the commute to a faraway place 



but in his head he's even further away 



and no one smiles - it's the working class 



who's got time for courtesy? 



for every working man who earns a working wage 



who's gonna set us free? 



the working man is in my head 



in this world we're all together 



remembering a girl he loved 



now he knows she's gone for good 



for him everyday is just a cycle 



gets home at night, turns on the color t.v. 



staring at programs set in faraway lands 



but the gray world outside his window is all he can see 



and no one smiles - it's the working class 



who's got time for courtesy? 



for every working man who earns a working wage 



who's gonna set us free? 



well if you've got a scream inside you better shout it before the real world
takes your breath away 



ideals die fast now if you let them 



but where's the future in another factory day? 



it's easy to say it 



it's harder to live it 



but look around and choose 



remember he's like you
