as you see, science once again robs us of our jobs
they've put a micro-chip in my place,
I hide behind screen of aggression nowadays
it's just a way of saving some face,
so now I'm permanently drunk
like the rest of the race with leisure
if you think I'm clowning I assure you
that I'm drowning here in leisure
they taught me how to work
but they can't teach me how to shirk correctly.
I spend all day and all my allowance on t.v. games amusement heaven at the flick of a switch.
instead of a lathe I busy my fingers nowadays
by scoring goals with the gentlest twitch.
I've forgotten how to use my legs to invade the pitch
leisure if you think I'm clowning
I assure you that I'm drowning here in leisure
they taught me how to work
but they can't teach me how to shirk correctly.

they had retired me 'fore I left school
(just saw no point in the standing in line)
so I spend lots of time lounging at home
(why not come in 'cos the carpet is fine)
what a waste of breath it is
searching for the jobs that don't exist.
so now I'm permanently drunk
like the rest of the race with leisure
if you think I'm clowning
I assure you that I'm drowning here in leisure
they taught me how to work
but they can't teach me how to shirk correctly.
