Working in the Field

I'm working on the fields
Far away from home
I'm laboring hard
But I'm far from done
The breaks are short and the coffee is thin
I need to finish 'fore the heat kicks in

1
I'm sunburned and i'm miserable
I'm covered up with dirt
And I can't even tell the sweat from tears
I've got blisters on my fingers
I've god blood stains on my shirt
I can't take it - get me out of here

2
I plow the fertile fields of social
anthropology
This lunch is bad - I can't take one more sup
I wish I had the spine to finish
This anthology
But now I feel the fields are drying up

3
My thesis must be finished
Within a month or so
And still I haven't got what should find
I'm homesick and I'm sick and tired
It's going way too slow
And I can't get the thesis of my mind

4
The mid day heat is killing me
I can't work out here
The sun block makes the dust stick on my face
I'm almost out of bottled water
I could need a beer
Take me to an air conditioned space
