Work Lyrics - Xtc

Keep your fingers busy 

Mentally or physically 

What four-letter word 

D'you know like... 

Look at me smile 

Look at me doing their 

Work 

Why'see me shuffle in the dirt 

My how I sweat 

But I don't mind 

'Cause it's work 

You got me rolling up my shirt 

There's all my old friends 

Sat by the fountain drinking beer 

Their days have no starts and no ends 

They drift into pub nights with no 

Promise for tomorrow 

All that they want is some 

Work 

Work 

Look at me smile 

Look at me polish these tools 

Am I breaking all the rules? 

A cycle like that 

I don't want to be late for school 

Well it's night school 

Now all my new friends 

Sit in their [site] huts drinking tea 

My day has no start and no ends 

Drifts into whole nights in my 

Coffin by the fireside 

Bugger this game 

I know who's to blame 

And that's 

Work 

Aw, work 

Keep your fingers busy 

Mentally or physically 

What four-letter word 

D'you know like 

Oh! Work, work 

Oh! Work, work 

I'm back with my old friends 

Sat by the Brunel drinking beer 

Don't want this to ever end 

We're living in fear of being 

Mizzled by a new myth 

Work 

I don't want to go to work 

Work 

I don't want to go to work
