Lyrics
Do you see that man in his leather chair
Observing a man in a position of power and comfort in his leather chair.
His fancy suit and stylish hair
Describing the man's luxurious appearance with a fashionable suit and stylish hair.
It's not the man from the streets
Clarifying that this man is not a common person from the streets.
It's not the one we usually meet
Emphasizing the contrast with ordinary individuals.
Working man, we stand strong
Expressing solidarity among working people, emphasizing strength.
We're in this together it's where we belong
Highlighting the unity of the working class and their sense of belonging.
Working man with all our pride
Praising the pride of a working man.
Stick together and show them your might
Encouraging unity and demonstrating collective strength.
Well you studied for years and years
Describing the hard work and dedication involved in acquiring knowledge.
Lots of sweat and lots of tears
Highlighting the physical and emotional effort invested in education.
Now you've finally reached your goal
Reaching a goal, but suggesting dissatisfaction with the achieved life.
A boring life I think you're a fool
Criticizing a seemingly dull and unfulfilling life.
Working man, we stand strong
Reiterating the strength and solidarity of working people.
We're in this together it's where we belong
Emphasizing the communal aspect of shared struggles and belonging.
Working man with all our pride

Reaffirming the authenticity and appeal of a street-centric lifestyle.
He kept on going drown himself in wealth
Describing the consequences of pursuing wealth, potentially at the cost of health.
Earning many dollars didn't care for his health
Indicating a disregard for health while accumulating wealth.
It was just stress that knocked him off his feet
Attributing stress as the cause of the man's downfall.
If you want to be rich, you'll have to bleed
Suggesting that achieving wealth requires significant sacrifice and effort.
Working man, we stand strong
Reasserting the strength and unity of working people.
