Newton Neurotics - Living With Unemployment Lyrics

I was living in a newtown
I had problems with my parents
So I moved on up to London town
Where they said things were happening, going down

Living in a besit
Bunking the tube trains
Sleeping all day long
And you know no-one, 'cos you don't go out
'Cos you've got no work
You just watch television
Living with unemployment

I, I ain't got a job
And there's no work in the city
They, they always try to blame it on the blacks
But it's really those in power who stab you in the back

Living in a besit
Bunking the tube trains
Sleeping all day long
And you know no-one, 'cos you don't go out
'Cos you've got no work
You just watch television
Living with unemployment

Round our way we ain't got a lot
And after two years on the dole I felt I'd been left to rot
But now I've joined the army and, believe it or not
I'm going to Northern Ireland and I'm gonna get shot!

Living in a besit
Bunking the tube trains
Sleeping all day long
And you know no-one, 'cos you don't go out
'Cos you've got no work
You just watch television
Living with unemployment

Living with unemployment
Oh you get so lonely
Living with unemployment
It gets so frustrating
Living with unemployment
And the Neurotics wanna tell you what it's like to be
Unemployed, out of work, unemployed, out of work
(Mother's plea) Try to stay out of trouble, dear

It's lonely for you
And it's lonely for me
It's lonely for all of us
Can't you see?

Living in a besit
Bunking the tube trains
Sleeping all day long
And you know no-one, 'cos you don't go out
'Cos you've got no work
You just watch television
Living with unemployment

Living with unemployment
Oh you get so lonely
Living with unemployment
It gets so frustrating
Living with unemployment, living without

(Club reggae section)
When you've out of work
They treat you like dirt
I said, when you're out of work
They treat you like dirt

It's all part of the plan, part of the plan
We are the scroungers
Living with unemployment
