|
And now and then when I'm in the mood |
|
I might get up at the crack of noon |
|
Then take a wander down to the arcade |
|
Might as well clock up a great high score |
|
And hang around with my mates before |
|
I wander back to find my dole's been paid |
|
Stay outdoors, play football, or simply play the fool |
|
If it rains go back in, you can always watch Play School |
|
Don't try to tell me that it ain't a lot |
|
I'm gonna make the best of what I've got |
|
So I have no job, welcome to the whole week |
|
I've always got my LP's to play |
|
Or find a friend to get a loan and tape |
|
And any time it's time to eat again |
|
Before you know, it's any night |
|
And so you meet the gang and go along the road |
|
Take any chance to have a drink or ten |
|
Share the crack, blokes with cash |
|
Get a hit of something else |
|
Out all night, shout and fight |
|
It makes you feel that you're yourself |
|
Some of you have got it in for me |
|
I don't need that or your sympathy |
|
So I have no job, welcome to the whole week |
|
If you don't mind, I've decided to live my life |
|
Well, it's always something to do |
|
My girl comes 'round and all we do is talk |
|
For hours on end or we don't talk at all |
|
While we more or less as we please |
|
You keep on that it's wrong |
|
We haven't earned lives of ease |
|
But there's no work to do |
|
And I won't queue up on my knees |
|
I never said that this was my ideal |
|
But still I'm gonna feel and make it real |
|
So I have no job, welcome to the whole week |
|
I never promised you, I'd go away |
|
You can't ignore me 'cos I'm here to stay |
|
So it's too bad, let me at the whole week |
