lyrics

Hazardous chemicals
Heptane and alcohol
Cleaner and fuel for another week
Nocturnal intervals
Of counting particles
Shuffle and flutter to hold back sleep
Nuke the soup again
Rubber gloves and dead skin
Keep me from slipping into the deep
Stare into the machine
Keep it clean, keep it clean
Keep me clean for another week

Labrat

I man my station
Fight the occupation
Keep my nose plastered to the glass
My skull just cries
Brain just fries
A few more hours, I have to last
Machines are broken
Maintenance man is soakin
And the deadline is drawing near
Fix the jam
Smile for the camera
Break some standards, we’re in the clear

Man, I could just go on if I weren’t just going down
If I knew where I was going, I might be there by now
Instead of just another week

Punch the clock
Trip the lock
Race right home to scrub the reek
Make some noise and
Throw back my poison
Liquor and legs are what I seek
Pay for the reverie
Ignore the reveille
Curse the sun and turn your cheek
Just play dead
Rest your head
You’re gonna need it for another week
