Factory

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Now I know I had something to say But the problem is to say something Uh, you gotta say it And I still don't remember a thing Since the funny gas came out of that pipe next to me I guess they didn't O.K. it Now I remember—did I tell ya? Cut my thumb off at the knuckle on a broken band saw Didn't see the belt buckle or the blade slip And I remember when the doctor did it up with a stitch Funny thing, still got a scratch that I can't itch where my thumb was [Verse 2] Now I've brought the same piece of chicken in a bag to work every day For the last twenty years or so And I really don't mind work assembly line Got an intercom blasting the news And the latest on the baseball scores Come around every Friday Well, I get a paycheck Take the same road home that I come to work on Heck, it's a living [Chorus] And I got another factory back home I got a barbeque, a pink mustang, fender's chrome And at nine o'clock I sit there in my chair And I don't know why I lose my hair [Post-Chorus] And then I go to And then I go to And then I go to sleep [Verse 3] Well, I like to know what I'm doin' when I do it And I do what I'm doin' 'Cause I don't know what to do when I'm not doin' it Sometimes I remember as a boy My father told me I could grow up to be anything I really wanted to be anything And everyday at lunch I still look for my lost digit Still got that funny scratch So maybe when I find it, I can itch it And I got a little rubber pool in the backyard For the kids to wade in [Chorus] And I, I, I, I-I-I I got another factory back home I got a little backyard, a pink mustang, fender's chrome At nine o'clock I'm in my chair sat down Just lately when my wife talks back to me I slap her around [Post-Chorus] And then I go to And then I go to And then I go to sleep [Outro] Whoa-oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh Whoa-oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh Whoa-oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh Whoa-oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh Whoa-oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh Whoa-oh, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh
