Jason Thompson
He works and works
Ten hours a day
Waiting for the pain
To simply fade away
If he works and works
He’ll get what he needs
If he continues to work
How can he not succeed?
His body aches
And his mind grows tired
But the gleam in his eye
Is bright and inspired
So he keeps on working
Until he can no longer say
“I’m working for something
That won’t come today”
So he keeps on working
Ten hours a day
Knowing that rest
Is not far away
