Enter the workplace.
A drama with many human roles at play.
Ambitions, clashing egos, subterfuge, braggadocio.
I just want to do my job.

Lurking in the shadows
Notes are being taken, actions recorded.
Attaboy awards and a pat on the head.
I just want to do my job.

The union contract will be my guide.
I know my rights
Don’t ask me to be a scab.
I just want to do my job.

When the day is done
With my fellow workers I pass through the gate.
Our days labor in harmony and solidarity.
I just want to do my job.
