day after day
to the coal mine i go
no sign of a black lung
butt i'm dying slow
no nurturing properties
in a false sun
i'm full of exhaustion
too weary to run
Leather faced goofies
are calling the shots
treat me like dirt
in a weed ridden pot
They give me their money
i tell them they're handsome
i'm stuck in this coalmine
a million dollar ransom
i'm kept by fear
and a paycheck to live
i don't lack confidence
i lack a reason to give
not many are worthy
to flank my existance
i'll get out of this coalmine
fuck these pissants!!!
When the time arrives
to say goodbye to the lotion
the pearl will be mine
i'll take the oyster back to the ocean.
today's not THAT day
i'm still walking the line
got dirt on my brow
butt i'm feeling fine
cause when i leave
it'll crumble
and people will die
in MY coal mine.
