The Government's Clerks

To say we're doing the government's work we'd have to all be crazy. Or could we just enjoy the work for fear of being lazy. We'd like to say we're tired of work but healthcare's our support. To know our plot is further off makes us the working sport. Then knowing we can sue for health makes living worth the while. Where every doctor's paid for time they take to make a trial. Where life belongs to leaders who would put us all to work. If not for our insurance when they bury us a clerk.
