Bottom Of The Chain lyrics

Artist  : Alice Donut 
Song : Bottom Of The Chain
 
Repulsive furniture in a small home out in Queens.


Spotted-tick-fever parents and their
bat-weilding teens. 

Another murder,
splattered across the news. 

Can't wait till
the flames engulf this city. 





Walk
in the slaughterhouse for an 8-hour day.


Walk out a butchered sow and crammed back in
the train. 

I'm claustrophobic, so I stay
close to the door. 

Get out at Essex, and
start to transform. 

Into a human.






I make your Xeroxes 

(I know.
I know) 

I staple and I file 

(I know. I
know) 

I'm going braindead. 

(I know. I
know) 

But I know what I'm worth, 

Yeah I
do. 



The head of my company doesn't
realize. 

That he's expendable, it would
still survive. 

But I'm the cannon fodder,
the grease inside the wheel. 

I'm the nerve
center, the achilles' heel.








And I'm the critical link.


I'm the crucial link. 

I'm the weakest
link. 

At the Bottom of the Chain.




In the economy. 

(Weak link)


At the Bottom of the Chain. 

(Weak link)


In the economy. 

(Your link) 

At the
Bottom of the Chain.... 

(Bottom, bottom,
bottom...) 









An
unimportant cell of an apathetic whole.


Fractured, uninterested, without any goals.


I like to drink a beer, stare out into the
streets. 

Smoke some cigarettes, cook
something to eat. 

Waiting for the city to
burn. 





I've made no impact. 

(I
know. I know) 

On this mass culture. 

(I
know. I know) 

I'm going braindead. 

(I
know. I know) 

But I rule this earth


Yeah, I do. 

'Cause when I collate


(I know. I know) 

The masses tremble.


(I know. I know) 

And when I send a fax


(I know. I know) 

The universe shudders
at my fury. 







And I'm the
critical link. 

I'm the crucial link.


I'm the weakest link. 

At the Bottom of
the Chain. 



In the economy. 

(Weak
link) 

At the Bottom of the Chain. 

(Weak
link) 

In the economy. 

(Weak link)


At the Bottom of the Chain. 

(Your link)


In the economy. 

(Go!) 

At the Bottom
of the Chain. 

(bottom, bottom, bottom)


In the economy. 

(Chain....) 

At the
Bottom of the Chain. 

(---------) 

In the
economy. 

(bottom, bottom) 

At the Bottom
of the Chain. 

(at the bottom of the chain)


..At the bottom!
