Rhapsody of the Beast©Written By Volker Heigelmann Beginning Chants Look past his shadowFindin’ it hard to swallow ChorusUnemployment Man, he’ll work for foodHe’s in a drinkin’ moodCan’t believe he’s so ungluedCan’t count, can’t spell, boy he’s screwedAll because he just lost his jobUnemployment Man, they think you’ll rob(BRIDGE)His eye’s, heat’s cold as stoneWhirl’s in out and out, he’s a cycloneWhirl’s in out and out, he’s a cycloneCyclone, his heart’s as cold as stone 1. Was a working man, once, was he notNot no more, now he’s the unemployment, Oh, big shotPulled the rug out took and all the sanity he’s gotYeah, He’ the great Unemployment ManGood thing when they saw him, they got up and ranGood thing when they saw him, they got up and ran 2. Unemployment Man cometh,Better hide your womenHe’ll eat your kidsCause when the Unemployment Man comethHe’ll bring sickness and deathNow ain’t that somethin’ what we’ll believeSure enough should make us feel  shamefulThey’re so damm dreadful Chorus 2He’s diseased, insane and all those things they sayDon’t look him in the eye you know you’ll turn to clayThat guy’s here to stayHe hides behind his sign, picks out his preyEnding verseI’m tellin’ you my brotherWe’re just keepin’ our head above the water.Above the water, water, water.   

This song is satirical in the fact it's hoe some people in their later years feel about themselves after losing their josand facing the process of beating the sidewals for a new job.

My special thanks goes out to Mark Cloutier for adding a haunting backing guitar and lead guitar as well. Doc on keys, bass, vocals, and harmony vocals.

This is a longer track but there is going on in this song to hold one's attention.
