Tom Robinson Band
Why Should I Mind?
Heard Billy Graham was busted
At West End Central tonight
Necking on Leicester Square Station
With a lover of mine -
Its just a sign of the times

Idi snorting Coca-Cola
Wonder why he's getting maligned
Enoch invited him over
For a couple of lines -
It's just a sign of the times

Debt collectors on the railway
Stealing me blind
I ain't worried - why I should mind?
It's nothing but a sign of the times

Brezhnev's having a party
Bring your own bottle of wine
Orlov isn't invited
He's fine in the mine
Its just a sign of the...

Time Out offering aspirin
Invitation to dine
Rent boys eating at Eton
They're getting refined -
It's just a sign of the times
Debt collectors on the railway
Stealing me blind
I ain't worried - why I should mind?
It's nothing but a sign of the times

Sunday joint on a mortgage
Saturday back to the grind
Some folks feeling redundant
Some just getting resigned -
It's a sign of the times
