> 1/2" holes through > 1/8" metal

No one tells you to slow a drill but you learn pretty quick
The first time it comes alive in your hands
Ignores what you want it to do
And does what it wants to do
Grabs your wrist and snaps them
In a way human wrists aren't meant to go
Maybe bends your thumb back the other way
If you were stupid and locked the trigger
(No one tells you never to lock the trigger)
It may skitter across the floor
Until you unplug it, or do something foolish like reach for the trigger
An Old Timer might be watching you,
chances are he probably saw the whole thing
Thought about coming over to say something
But you knew better and when you watched him do it
he didn't mar the paint, his holes lined up
BUT IT TOOK SO LONG
and your hands were itching, and you were dying to snatch the tool
From his hands
To show him: How it's done
And now you're holding the drill, thinking
About the way you saw him do it
Comparing it to how you just did it
And wondering how you're gonna get that broken drill bit
Out of that piece of metal
