working for money and the system too thought the dole queue made you "worthless" now you're slaved to a public machine getting somewhere...is this what they mean? worthless....not enough money! chorus: i'd rather work for money than just for "something to do" but then why bother working at all? do you want to stay totally normal? you wanted more and what did they say? "you'll never sell yourself to anyone come back and try in six months time don't you know there's a social decline?" politics - don't it make you mad? (chorus) you said you'd look for another job "well try it sonny you won't get far do as you're told and stop complaining" being conned is part of the training crash course - learning how to lose (chorus)
