take-out again
third time this week
chopsticks on the floor
inquiry in my head
again are we to live?
on day to day
week to week
\\$4.50 an hour
in that same old restaurant
take-out again
smelling the cardboard
venting into the room
go and get your own damn chopsricks
these are the ones I used
maybe there's something
we can watch on TV
I don't have to work today
don't forget
to take out the trash
living our American dream
