L E I S U R E lyrics

aaaaa s you see, science once again robs us of our jobs
aa they've put a micro-chip in my place, I hide behind
aaaaaa screen of agression nowadays it's just a way of
aa aa saving some face, so now I'm permanently
aaaa aa 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.
