Out of the night spell, out
of the sleep cell,
A
E
into the tunnel of day
I took the high -speed lift to Gallery 9
D
and stood in the mail
E
on Married Workers Line, Grade 4
Gave me rank and number to the slot
And drew me daily, what a rash,
and took the lot

At last in the observation tower

the rivers everywhere.
D
The Earth was our birthright!
