It Happens Every Day At Five

This is reminiscent of dacades past when we had an acutal, thriving, industrial economy in this country… Now, I suspect that ‘The Daily Resurrection Blues’ might be stated differently… –LE

The Daily Resurrection Blues

Waiting for the resurrection,
It happens every day at five.
That’s the time we come alive.
For now, we just improve production.

I’ve got the waiting-for-
The-daily-resurrection blues.

Walking dead from nine till five,
Push us hard – keep the profits high.
We break production records daily.

I’ve got the waiting-for-
The-daily-resurrection blues.

Mother Earth spinning through time,
Writes a line called destiny
In the book called history.
She’s the writing tip
Of the universal “BIC.”

I’ve got the waiting-for-
The-daily-resurrection blues.

–LE – 1982
