Model Worker

I'm sick of working on the land

I wanna work with machines and look handsome

I have been indulging

in ostentatious display

doing little more than eat

three square meals a day

And I've been shirking my duty

so I've been sending gifts to curry favour

But because I love you

and because you love me

a model worker

I'II willingly be

I need a holiday, I've not been well

take me to the Brocade River Hotel

And I just want to know

while the revolution lasts

will it enable me

to swallow broken glass!

I'm not too worried by hegemony

I know the cadre will look after me

And I just want to know while the revolution lasts

will it enable me to swallow broken glass!

I have been indulging in ostentatious display

doing little more than eat three square meals a day

But because I love you ..
