Wage Earner

Helpless puppet Dancing on a string Make me dance Make me sing I must bow deeply So I can eat Yes sir, okay! May I clean your feet? You pass your exams You earn your degree I’m your favorite flunky! Pass judgement on me! The employee consultation Is your bone-cracking mallet Why, I’m just a canvas Or a color on your palette! Your family gobbles steak Plenty for all! Hey, you’re rich and sassy! Take the kids to the mall! Your offspring are uplifted They grow up safe and sound Very soon one day They’ll boss my kids around! Bossus, you are strong You do what you must But playing your advantage Doesn’t make you just!
