[Verse 1]
G
Charles got a job in a factory
G
Drilling sheet metal from six till three
G
Worked extra hours for a better wage
G
Got lost in his task quite needlessly
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
G
I noticed his brain was a plastic box
G
His work rate improved 'cause he couldn't stop
G
He couldn't eat lunch with those metal hands
G
His legs were supports for new inner glands
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
G
Next when I saw him his face was gone
G
A stainless steel spine now instead of bone
G
His arms became grafted onto the switch
G
Six months without food made it quite a trip
[Interlude]
G D G D
[Verse 4]
G
His wife soon returned from her open grief
G
She told his employer she had kids to keep
G
They gave her the scrap price of his machine
G
Last weekend Charles became obsolete
[Outro]
