The ‘lunch time’ music that was sung by a music guru Gabriel Omolo in the 1970’s basically talks about behaviors of workers specifically at the industrial area in Nairobi, Kenya. These workers are casual laborers who earn low wages on a daily basis but accumulated by the employer and paid only at the end of the month. These paid wages are normally little that cannot sustain them up to the end month. Before end month, many of these workers appear so tired and therefore lie under trees while others go round the shops pretending to be window shopping. These behaviors explicated by Gabriel Omolo clearly augur well with the basic tenets of both psychological and realism theories. Thus the paper exposes the psychological and the realistic aspects manifested in this hit song ‘lunch time’. The paper concludes that the ‘lunch time’ hit song augurs well with the basic tenets of both the psychological and realism theories whereby the industrial area workers generally change behaviors as soon as they receive their little pay. These behaviors are truly manifested in the real working environments especially industrial areas in the developing countries
