Piece of Work Lyrics

I'm a piece of work I'm a walking one of a kind

I'm a speck of dust waiting to be refined

Somedays I'm on a slow boat to China without a phone

I'm on a lifeline someday I'm going home

I'm a one I'm a two I'm a three buckle my shoe

I walk and I don't run to my wife's house of fun

I'm retired and diving in the snow

I'm like peanut butter stuck on a Kaiser roll

Well you gave me redemption at the dawn of time

You saved me and loved me when I was going blind

I couldn't see a thing

I can't swim I can't float

I can throw a line from a boat

I can glide I can hide but I refuse to fly

Jumping from a airplane is not my cup of tea

I'll take the road less travelled

So have some sympathy

Well you gave me redemption at the dawn of time

You saved me and you loved me when I was so blind

I couldn't see the truth at all

I'm a piece of work I'm a walking one of a kind

I'm a speck of dust waiting to be refined

Somedays I'm on a slow boat

To China without a phone

I'm on a lifeline someday I'm going home

I'm on a lifeline someday I'm going home

I'm on a lifeline someday I'm going

I'm going home I'm going home yeah
