RESPONSIBILITY

Because of the job…
because of the job…
because of the job
I can’t afford 
to be caught drink driving
so I stay in.

Because of the job…
because of the job…
because of the job
I can’t afford 
to be found wanting
so I don’t sin.

But where is the life I had?
And where are the joys I had?

And is this all that’s left?
Am I now caught 
in this cruel 
cleft stick 
that picks me up
and clamps me tight
with no fight left?

I… 
           think…  
                           not!
