Testo The Contractors - Rasputina

Testo della canzone The Contractors (Rasputina), tratta dall'album Oh Perilous World

Who did you see there that night?
Well, the reverend Creighton Lovelace, he works for Equipment Express
That's based in the northwestern Indiana community of Rolling Prairie
And what kind of company is that?
They make machinery for packaging liquids
What kind of people work there?
They are burly employees, violent, dirty, unruly. Many of these
Same employees are unemployed and express themselves with
Difficulty. They smell of promiscuous troublemakers' helplessness
"To the airport!" they cry. The airport in itself a fortress
What about Brunhoffer, what was he like?
Well, to relax, Brunhoffer went on long runs, drove to an empty
Field to listen to the wind or cross-stitched football overs
Did anyone scream anything?
They screamed, "Kill him!" as they
Ran towards him carrying large rocks
Was anyone from KBR there?
Former KBR supervisor Steve Powell said they do
All the grunt jobs, but a lot of them are top notch
Did Brunhoffer want to go back?
Well, Brunhoffer would rather throw himself off a
Balcony than go back to the kink-pants managers with
Their ineptitudes, MBAs, and their verbal attacks
Did you tell him anything?
"Don't go," we told him. "It's not worth the suffering."
Do you have a personal opinion about...
Blackwater working the hurricane equals the contractors
Being the brownshirts, utilizing clawback payments
Blisters, blood, choking, and probably nerve agents
What else did you see?
Um, white smoke billowed into the sky from the brick-red
Water, suggesting the repeated use of a spiked knuckleduster
Did anyone from the Kentucky Fried Chicken Corporation say anything?
Well, David Novak, the chief executive of Louisville-based Yum!
Brands, KFC's parent, said that back of the envelope, Kentucky
Fried Chicken is the one big trend that's going on in the
World today. He said, "We're the chicken capital of the USA."
Thank you very much, that's all for today
