The Dirty Jobs Songtext / Lyric

I am a man who looks after the pigs

Usually I get along okay

I am a man who reveals all he digs

Should be more careful what I say



I'm getting put down

I'm getting pushed 'round

I'm being beaten every day



My life's fading

But things are changing

I'm not gonna sit and weep again



I am a man who drives the local bus

I take miners to work but the pits all closed today

It's easy to see that you are one of us

Ain't it funny how we all seem to look the same?



I'm getting put down

I'm getting pushed 'round

I'm being beaten every day






My life's fading

But things are changing

I'm not gonna sit and weep again



My karma tells me

That you've been screwed again

If you let them do it to you

You've got yourself to blame



It's you who takes the shame

It's you who feels the pain



I am a young man, I ain't done very much

You men should remember how you used to fight

Just like a child, I am seeing only dreams

I'm all mixed up but I know what's right



I'm getting put down

I'm getting pushed 'round

I'm being beaten every day



My life's fading

But things are changing

I'm not gonna sit and weep again

I'm not gonna weep again
