Ron Angel - The I.C.I. Song

★ Verse 1 ★
A process man am I and I'm telling you no lie
I've worked and breathed among the fumes that trail across the sky
There's thunder all around me and poison in the air
There's a lousy smell that smacks of hell and dust all in my hair

★ Chorus ★
But you go, boys, go
They time your every breath
And every day you're in this place
You're two days nearer death, but you go

★ Verse 2 ★
I've worked among the spinners, I've breathed in the oil and smoke
I've shovеlled up the gypsum till it nigh on makes you chokе
I've stood knee deep in cyanide, gone sick with a caustic burn
I've been working rough, I've seen enough to make your stomach turn

★ Chorus ★
But you go, boys, go
They time your every breath
And every day you're in this place
You're two days nearer death, but you go

★ Verse 3 ★
There's overtime, there's bonus opportunities galore
The young men like the money, aye, they all come back for more
Ah, but soon you're knocking on, you look older than you should
For every bob made on this job, you pay with flesh and blood

★ Chorus ★
But you go, boys, go
They time your every breath
And every day you're in this place
You're two days nearer death, but you go

★ Verse 4 ★
A process man am I and I'm telling you no lie
I've worked and breathed among the fumes that trail across the sky
There's thunder all around me and poison in the air
There's a lousy smell that smacks of hell and dust all in my hair
