The Nigel Purcell Trio - Coddiwomple Revisited

The Working Class (Remastered)

We are bottom of the pile
We graft and toil
We're expendable and used
The boardrooms tools
All we want is a living wage
And maybe a holiday
Hopefully make ends meet
I might go to the match this week

We are bottom of the heap
The guided sheep
Six till Two
Two till Ten
Sometimes more or less
Some are working
Thirteen weeks
There's no permanence in this
Future insecurity
Castle home is a pipe dream

With a can and cigarettes
A cracked TV
Marijuana permeates
The air I breathe
Other drugs can be obtained
To escape the constant pain
The pound shop closed this week
The food bank we will visit
