Workday

While adults are bound by the obligation of work 
The children get caught in the routine of school 
All are engaged through the days of the work week 
To earn a living or prepare for the work life ahead

After the weekend of rest, fun, and labour 
The body is forced back into that same routine 
Obeying the sequence of those who created the order 
Made to ensure unchallenged control of humans
