(Downes/Payne)

So early in the morning
It's the same now every day
Sign your name and number
Cutting from the ball and chain

Never letting go when
The weight was so deceiving
Treading on a turning wheel

Machinery is screaming
Shoulder to the stone again
Praying for the evening
Hiding as the fist hits steel

[Chorus:]
Enough's enough
It's eye to eye
Enough's enough
We cry
Enough's enough
Of smoke and steel
Enough's enough
Of turning this wheel

Looking at his picture
Steel did turn the skin to bone
Father I remember
The hands that had to break the stone

[Chorus]
