Dish Pig

Dish Pig - By Paul McCann

Its lonely by the sink and you’re not allowed to think 

when you’re stuck in a solo scrubbers gig .

The only thing you’ll hear are the voices in your ear ,

its always the same when you’re a dish pig .

You’re in the same old spot with some dirty cooking pot

And residue so thick you have to get in and dig

all the time you scrub , you feel like a grub ,

does anybody care for the dish pig ?

It’s a sharp knife or hot pan .

coming up behind you man ,

washing up night and day ,

just scraping a weekly pay

with sponges and steel wool ,

ou’ve got to keep cool , when you’re a dish pig .

So you rinse out every cup

as the mountains all pile up

and you pay for all the breakages that drop on the floor ,

then come plate after plate

and a heavy  greasy grate

and water just  can’t cut it anymore .

It’s a sharp knife or hot pan .

coming up behind you man ,

washing up night and day ,

just scraping a weekly pay

with sponges and steel wool ,

ou’ve got to keep cool , when you’re a dish pig ..
