[The Clash cover song] The offered me the office, offered me the shop. They said I'd better take anything they'd got. Do you wanna make tea at the BBC? Do you wanna be, do you really wanna be a cop? (no fuckin' way) Career opportunities are the ones that never knock Every job they offer you is to keep you out the dock Career opportunity, the ones that never knock. I hate the army an' I hate the Cambridge Police. I don't wanna go fighting in the tropical heat I hate the civil service rules And I won't open letter bombs for you Career opportunities are the ones that never knock Every job they offer you is to keep you out the dock Career opportunity, the ones that never knock. Oi Oi Oi, Carney Givens, Arthur McGilvrey, Bobby Linchsky They're gonna have to introduce conscription. They're gonna have to take away my prescription. If they wanna get me making toys, If they wanna get me, well, I got no choice Career opportunities are the ones that never knock Every job they offer you is to keep you out the dock Career opportunity, the ones that never knock. Careers, Careers, Careers... Ain't never gonna knock.
