Trust Only Employers, It’s Only A Crow
Trust only employers
those who hire you
they can tell all the truths they wish
if they ask you to lie for the cause
please be patient with them
There is only one rule that matters:
and that is: make money
if it doesn’t gravitate greenbacks
it ain’t honest work
trust me on this
I asked you for a glass of wine:
and you were only serving beer
I asked for a cup of water:
and it was only for the customers
it was only caffeine for the workers; they want you buzzing
There is only on radical around here:
and he is out of a job, just now
you can only hold your own so long
some hold it forever
They don’t bitch and complain and tell you what’s wrong
If grass don’t grow here, ‘s something wrong:
for it is the season
somebody put something there
and now it won’t grow
gasoline, or radiation, or concrete
That bird is sick:
it can’t fly away
it’s here to stay
that bird over there” it’s sick too
but I know, it’s only a crow, and that is how it goes
