G G/f# Em7
Will you still love me, will you still hug me,
Cadd9 G D
When I’m eighty four,
G G/f# Em7
When I’ve been working all my life,
A7 D D7
And I’m still bloody poor?
G G7
Dust in my lungs, a broken back,
C A7
Still can’t retire it hurts,
G G/f# Em7 Cadd9
Well I’m all for workers’ rights and that,
G D G
As long as I don’t have to work,
D Cadd9 G
So hats off to the schemers, to the scroungers, to the rats,
D Cadd9 G
To the ones who sleep on mattresses on the floor, clutching baseball bats,
D Cadd9 G
To the beggars and the cheaters and the kings who rise at noon,
Am C D
To the scoundrels, the misfits, the parasites, this one’s for you,
[NO GUITAR]
“Don’t send me on another New Deal course, I can already spell my name, you lot take the piss”
Maybe I’ll never shoot a rabbit,
Perhaps I’ll never drink champagne,
But that’s alright with me,
I prefer cider anyway,
I’m happy doing nothing,
They tell me it’s all a waste,
But I ain’t never seen no 3 piece suit,
With a smile on his face,
[CHORUS]
[NO GUITAR]
“I searched all the newspapers and made my CV, I swear there just ain’t nothing out there”
A 9 to 5, 5 days a week,
Is bottom of my list,
I just couldn’t live with myself,
Knowing there was something that I missed,
So don’t go telling me “Take it seriously”,
Believe me I do,
But life’s for living, not for working,
And I got better things to do,
[CHORUS]
[end on G, presumably]
