lyrics

You lost your job today
Thrown off of the gravy train
Now just a foot soldier of pity
And the king of the weak and tamed
Returning home to an empty rumour
With what's left of your weekly wage
It's just a matter of time
Before the curtain drops
And you stumble off the stage

(Chorus)
The faces at the bar
Expressions all the same
Take it as it comes
But don't complain

Leave the house at eleven thirty
To join the boys down at the bar
Not enough to get the round in
It's depressing you fell this far
But that feeling never lasts
Beyond the bottom of the glass
Because the next in line
Already tops the bar
And you know it won't be the last

(Bridge)
A hanger on to the Big Society
An outlet for the family's grief
A happy ending ain't guaranteed

(Last whole chorus)
Spiral down into your stupor
With no-one else but yourself to blame
Take it as it comes
But don't complain
