Worum geht es in dem Song?

Der Songtext "A Stitch in Time" von "Jethro Tull" handelt von der Arbeit in Fabriken und den damit verbundenen Herausfor...

I work in dark factories --- a cog in the big wheel
Driving grey satanic mills and weaving sad stories.
And faceless masters --- oh, they pay me plenty ---
Crumbs from their luncheon packs, harsh wine from
Bottles halk empty.

It's an early bird catches the worm.
Show a little pride before you fall.
So I flew to the south sun with birds of a feather
To drink in the warm nights and tell of fine weather.
A stitch in time saves nine.

Listen all you young folk --- your lives on a timetable
Clocking on twenty-one --- fly while you're able.
A stitch in time saves nine.
