[The Style Council - Homebreakers lyrics]
Good morning day, how do you do
I wonder - what will you do for me?
I should be on my way
I should be earning pay
I should be all the things that I'm not
And I've tried on my own
Now there's nothing to keep me at home
Like my Brother has too - gotta leave
To get out of this view
You see they tell you to move around
If you can't find work in your own town
As I rise from my bed I can hear the old man
Blaming Heaven and Mother for this
30 Years with one firm, 13 months redundant
Yes I'd say that's unlucky for some
Now our tears fall like rain
As my Mother walks me to my train
With a kiss and a wave - "Come home
Weekends" - that's if I can save
I swear I'll take it out on the man
Who ever devised this economy plan
All the love in the world - can't put
Dinner on the table all the hate that I feel
No love could put right
Good morning day, how do you do
I wonder - what will you do for me?
I should be on my way
I should be earning pay
I should be all the things that I'm not
And I've tried on my own
Now there's nothing to keep me at home
All the love and the strength has
Been taken by this Government
You see they tell you to move around
If you can't find work in your own town
Father's in the kitchen, counting out coins
Mother's in the bedroom
Looking through pictures of her boys
One is in London, looking for a job
The other's in Whitehall -
Looking for those responsible!
I wonder - what will you do for me?
I should be on my way
I should be earning pay
I should be all the things that I'm not
And I've tried on my own
Now there's nothing to keep me at home
Like my Brother has too - gotta leave
To get out of this view
You see they tell you to move around
If you can't find work in your own town
As I rise from my bed I can hear the old man
Blaming Heaven and Mother for this
30 Years with one firm, 13 months redundant
Yes I'd say that's unlucky for some
Now our tears fall like rain
As my Mother walks me to my train
With a kiss and a wave - "Come home
Weekends" - that's if I can save
I swear I'll take it out on the man
Who ever devised this economy plan
All the love in the world - can't put
Dinner on the table all the hate that I feel
No love could put right
Good morning day, how do you do
I wonder - what will you do for me?
I should be on my way
I should be earning pay
I should be all the things that I'm not
And I've tried on my own
Now there's nothing to keep me at home
All the love and the strength has
Been taken by this Government
You see they tell you to move around
If you can't find work in your own town
Father's in the kitchen, counting out coins
Mother's in the bedroom
Looking through pictures of her boys
One is in London, looking for a job
The other's in Whitehall -
Looking for those responsible!
