Align:    
  • CHORUS:
  • And its go boys go
  • They'll time your every breath
  • And every day you're in this place your two days nearer death
  • But you go ...
  • Well, a process man am I and I am tellin' you no lie
  • I work and breathe among the fumes that tread across the sky
  • There's thunder all around me and there's poison in the air
  • There's a lousy smell that smacks of hell and dust all in me hair
  • CHORUS
  • Well, I've worked among the spitters and I breathe the oily smoke
  • I've shovelled up the gypsum and it neigh 'on makes you choke
  • I've stood knee deep cyanide, got sick with a caustic burn
  • Been working rough, I've seen enough to make your stomach turn
  • CHORUS
  • There's overtime and bonus opportunities galore
  • The young men like their money and they all come back for more
  • But soon your knocking on and you look older than you should
  • For every bob made on the job, you pay with flesh and blood
  • CHORUS
  • Well, a process man am I and I am telling you no lie
  • I work and breathe among the fumes that tread across the sky
  • There's thunder all around me and there's poison in the air
  • There's a lousy smell that smacks of hell and dust all in me hair
  • CHORUS (x2)
