Piss Factory Lyrics - Land (1975-2002) - Patti Smith

Sixteen and time to pay off 

I got this job in a piss factory inspecting pipe 

Forty hours thirty-six dollars a week 

But it's a paycheck, Jack. 

It's so hot in here, hot like Sahara 

You could faint in the heat 

But these bitches are just too lame to understand 

Too goddamned grateful to get this job 

To know they're getting screwed up the ass 

All these women they got no teeth or gum or cranium 

And the way they suck hot sausage 

But me well I wasn't sayin' too much neither 

I was moral school girl hard-working asshole 

I figured I was speedo motorcycle 

I had to earn my dough, had to earn my dough

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

 

But no you gotta, you gotta [relate, babe,] 

You gotta find the rhythm within 

Floor boss slides up to me and he says 

"Hey sister, you just movin' too fast, 

You screwin' up the quota, 

You doin' your piece work too fast, 

Now you get off your mustang sally 

You ain't goin' nowhere, you ain't goin' nowhere." 

I lay back. I get my nerve up. I take a swig of Romilar 

And walk up to hot shit Dot Hook and I say 

"Hey, hey sister it don't matter 

Whether I do labor fast or slow, 

There's always more labor after." 

 

She's real Catholic, see. 

She fingers her cross and she says 

"There's one reason. There's one reason. 

You do it my way or I push your face in. 

We knee you in the john 

If you don't get off your get off your mustang Sally, 

If you don't shake it up baby. 

" Shake it up, baby. Twist & shout" 

 

Oh that I could will a radio here. 

James Brown singing 

"I Lost Someone" or the Jesters and the Paragons 

And Georgie Woods 

The guy with the goods and Guided Missiles ... 

 

But no, I got nothin', no diversion, no window, 

Nothing here but a porthole in the plaster, in the plaster, 

Where I look down, 

Look at sweet Theresa's convent 

All those nurses, all those nuns scattin' 'round 

With their bloom hoods like cats in mourning. 

Oh to me they, you know, 

To me they look pretty damn free down there 

 

Down there not having crystal smooth 

Not having to smooth those hands against hot steel 

Not having to worry about the inspeed 

The dogma the inspeed of labor 

They look pretty damn free down there, 

And the way they smell, the way they smell 

And here I gotta be up here smellin' 

Dot Hook's midwife sweat 

 

I would rather smell the way boys smell-- 

Oh those schoolboys the way their legs 

Flap under the desks in study hall 

That odor rising roses and ammonia 

And way their dicks droop like lilacs 

Or the way they smell that forbidden acrid smell 

But no I got, I got pink clammy lady in my nostril 

Her against the wheel me against the wheel 

Oh slow motion inspection is drivin' me insane 

In steel next to Dot Hook -- oh we may look the same-- 

 

Shoulder to shoulder sweatin' 110 degrees 

But I will never faint, I will never faint 

They laugh and they expect me to faint 

But I will never faint 

I refuse to lose, I refuse to fall down 

Because you see it's the monotony that's got to me 

 

Every afternoon like the last one 

Every afternoon like a rerun next to Dot Hook 

And yeah we look the same 

Both pumpin' steel, both sweatin' 

But you know she got nothin' to hide 

And I got something to hide here called desire 

I got something to hide here called desire 

And I will get out of here-- 

 

You know the fiery potion is just about to come 

In my nose is the taste of sugar 

And I got nothin' to hide here save desire 

And I'm gonna go, I'm gonna get out of here 

I'm gonna get out of here, I'm gonna get on that train, 

I'm gonna go on that train and go to New York City 

I'm gonna be somebody, 

I'm gonna get on that train, go to New York City, 

I'm gonna be so bad I'm gonna be a big star 

And I will never return, 

Never return, no, never return, 

To burn out in this piss factory 

And I will travel light. 

Oh, watch me now.
