The Rebel Black Dot Labor Song o' the Day

Less Than Jake, "Last Hour of the Last Day of Work" from Borders & Boundaries (Mike Papa Worker)

Commentary:
"I can't help but think back to the
The advice that I got from my dad,
He said, 'Time goes by so fast
In the blink of an eye, so never close your eyes,'
And I always wanted something,
Something more than fifty hours
Every week, and a paid vacation
On the Jersey shoreline.

"And he said, 'So when ambition
Turns into competition,
I'll never be the better man.'
(Whoa oh oh oh) So when ambition
Turns into competition,
I'll never be the better man (Yeah!)…"
