When our Mave and I was married 

tried to settle down 

And all we need's half a million quid 

for to buy a two up and two down 

We were on the council waiting list 

number six thousand and five 

We're due for a house in 2001 

that's assuming we're both still alive. 



Where the hell are we gonna live 

where the hell are we gonna live? 

Some miserable mansion up in the sky 

walking around in a block a mile high, 

Tellin' my friends that I'd much rather die 

where the hell are we gonna live? 



Well, it's all a bleedin' fiddle 

forgive me for bein' so rude 

I know we could save for the mortgage right now 

if the two of us stopped eating food 

Where the hell do our kids play 

where the hell do our kids play? 

No ball game allowed, stay off of the grass 

Keep out of the way, don't block up the path 

Shove all your plans right up your 



Where the hell are we gonna live... 



They're building battery farms for humans 

where houses stood before 

Where there used to be just one family 

now they're tryin' to keep 24 

There's no shops, playgrounds no boozers, 

in the architects' great plan 

You may wanna live like a chicken my friend, 

but I wanna live like a man. 



Where the hell are we gonna live 

where the hell are we s'posed to live?... 



Where the hell are we gonna live 

where the hell are we s'posed to live?...
