Working In The Coal Mine Lyrics

Cover art for Working In The Coal Mine lyrics by Devo

Gotta dissagree with you there. Devo's all about "Joe Average" and how the common man is devolving. I think this song suggests that man isn't living anymore, we've become like ants who work to make money. Ironically, the miner in this song doesn't even spend this money on having fun, because he's too tired.

Evolution? Nay sir, DEVOlution!
