+====== Chemical Worker's Song ======
+by Ron Angel
+**Chorurs:**
+//It's go boys, go
+They'll time your every breath
+And every day you're in this place,
+You're two days nearer death.
+But you go.//
+A process man am I and I'm telling you no lie.
+I've worked and breathed among the fumes that trail across the sky.
+There's thunder all around me, and poison in the air.
+There's a lousy smell that smacks of Hell, and dust all in my hair.
+[//chorus//]
+I've worked among the spinners, I've breathed in the oily smoke.
+I've shoveled up the gypsum, and it nigh on makes you choke.
+I've stood knee-deep in cyanide, gone sick with a caustic burn.
+I've been workin' rough, I've seen enough to make your stomach churn.
+[//chorus//]
+There's overtime, there's bonus, opportunities galore
+Oh, the young lads like their money and they all come back for more.
+But soon you're knockin' old, and you're colder than you should.
+For every bob made on this job you play with flesh and blood.
+[//chorus//]
