letitia vansant – parts & labor lyrics
in clothing sewn in crowded rooms
eating food picked by weary bones
at table cleaned by tired feet
a meal served from fatigue
i act like it’s my birth right
to stumble round like a drunken fool
but some know this is hallowed ground
don’t deserve our dirty boots
well i wonder where those feet would go
wonder what those hands would do
if they ever had a row to hoe and a moment to choose
well move along, don’t care where you go
but we need this sidewalk clear
loose parts in the back of some forgotten drawer
is there anywhere on god’s green earth that i can pull my weight
a place for everyone and everyone in his place
i buit a house of mud and straw
it cracked in the freeze and thaw
so i retreat on my knees
to the city i withdraw
someday the lord will open all the doors
all the bells a-ringing true
a place at every table waiting there just for you
well all we are is parts and labor
to this engine’s indifferent hum
scr-pe the bottom of the barrell
