Process Man (a.k.a. Chemical Worker's Song)
Well, if you're from Newfoundland, you've likely heard of these men: Great Big Sea. I've loved their music since I saw them on some Canadian channel playing outdoors at a ski resort in shorts in the Winter while it was snowing.
This is also one of my favorite of their songs. The original version on Up (and that I heard live, about 12 feet from the stage in Ann Arbor) was powerful in the way that a capella music can be. This recording has either poor audio detail, or the lead singer was having vocal problems & slurring a bit, just a bit. I mention this only in that - if you like this - the standard studio recording is even better for the clarity (as is often the case).
Process Man - the ballad of a fellow stuck in the chemical manufacturing world.
work & breathe among the fumes that trail across the sky...
and it's go boys, go, they'll time your every breath ...
'cause every day you're in this place you're 2 days nearer death ...
