From the cradle to the grave We're manhandled and manipulated Manoeuvred like chess pieces Arranged in columns, in  statistics, in order Our worth is determined by skilful orientation Influenced by others, employed by others, used by others Faceless, nameless, featureless, utilisers that Make sure we are kept within our boundaries Yet, all these words have one thing in common MAN Unscrupulous influence unfairly deployed Ensure that our managed manhandling is exploited by the MAN.
