All wrapped up in your cozy world 

Watch TV out in the cold 

Switch the channel, stop and stare 

About the dole, you don't care 

Think you're secure in your boring job 

Thatcher's policy, the right to rob 

Government takes never gives 

4 years on, nothing's achieved 



[Chorus]

Think you're secure don't know why 

Lose your job then you'll cry 

Government cutbacks saving billions 

On the dole, now one of the millions 



See yourself in ten years time 

Standing in the dole queue line 

Been told that it won't happen to you 

Big boss says so, must be true 

All week long you'll fret yourself 

Thinking you'll end up on the shelf 

Been off sick had the flu 

You go back and it's happened to you 



[Chorus] 



[1st verse]



[Chorus]
