lyrics

whether you like it or not we come out of school and you know we need a job/it makes rent and it makes beer money too/but working in the city is only for some of you/on paper the work seems pretty fine/but in the morning take a trip on the jubilee or city lines/silence is louder than the northen at midnight/but theres people all around me/theyre as useful to society as three stops on the waterloo and city/so for taking my mates and making them faceless/fuck conglomerates, economists and banks/of course they get a healthy little nest egg/but how do you spend it when youre sitting there cross-legged/in a trouser suit, blackberry and headphones/those money spinning economists make the world spin on its axis/i know i was rubbish at maths at school/maybe im just jealous of you/you make more money in a week than me/but does your big empty house make you feel happy?/well if it does sorry, cos its not for me to judge/but dont you get the urge to run into the woods and fuck?/that'd ruin your nice pressed trouser suit/cos if we all look the same then nobody breaks ranks/and on the soul crushing morning run to work/the suit and the tie seems to make things worse/but whats the point in my taking the piss/when you'll only listen if our music sounds like this: change your life mate, youre working for the devil/at the end of the working week its time to hit the pub/we dress down out of a our trouser suits and head into the city/we'll be burnin' and a-lootin' tonight/maybe we can start up a fight/but the face on the clock on the wall will remind us that we are clones of one another in time/change your life mate, youre working for the devil
