The wheelbarrow’s fallen.
Look at my hands.
They’ve found some surplus, cheaper hands
Rubbing palms and pick and choose
Who will they choose? Here is the news.
Look at that building, look at this man,
Haloed and whitewashed,
Gone to find a cheaper hand.
He’ll offer a pound, offer a pound.
Green grow the rushes go
Green grow the rushes go
Green grow the rushes go
The compass points the workers home
Pay for your freedom and find another gate.
Guilt by associate. The rushes wilted a long time ago.
Guilty as you go.
Stay off that highway, word is it’s not so safe.
The grasses that hide the greenback,
The amber waves of gain, of gain.
The amber waves of gain.
Green grow the rushes go
Green grow the rushes go
Green grow the rushes go
The compass points the workers home
La la la la lying
