Jenny Yates - Man Against Machine lyrics

Papa They're waiting just outside my door This is where I make make my stand Because I can't stand it anymore Papa They have no heart and soul But make no doubt about it They're the ones that' in control So prepare yourself for a war unlike anything you've ever seen This is man against machine (Work, Work, Work) Day in day out Bust your back and turn it out Next bought and do it all again Hard job or two So your children won't have to That's just the ways its always been But lately I swear that lately the machine Are living the American dream Careful calculations Details drawn down to design Is it really for the better or a better bottom line Don't know me from Adam Man it's rotten to the core Stronger now reminded that man's kicked its a** before The gloves are off In this war of man against machine Work Work Work Up early up hills Spend your youth to pay the bills Each generation makes a trade Top Floor bra** tax Holds the hand that holds the ax Acts like my dues have not been paid But pay attention now when I say Formation isn't happening today Careful calculations Details drawn down to design Is it really for the better or a better part of life Don't know me from Adam it's rotten to the core Stronger now reminded that man's kicked its a** before Drop hammer's going to blow off some steam In this war of man against machine Work Work Work Papa The power's off the machines are down In this world of darkness I can still hear a sound Papa That sound tears us apart Cause I'm a machine myself But I am one with a working heart Careful calculations Details drawn down to design Is it really for the better or a better bottom line Don't know me from Adam Man it's rotten to the core Stronger now reminded that man's kicked its a** before The gloves are off In this war of man against machine Work Work Work
