[Verse 1]
Who wants to work when the cash ain't there?
Who wants to get up where theres nowhere to stay?
Who wants a job when theres nothing about?
You can stuff employment, thats what we say

[Chorus]
Sleeping all day and sitting up all night
Poncing fags thats alright
We're on the dole and we're proud of it
We're ready for five more years

[Verse 2]
Don't want to know about the privileged few
Don't want to know what its costing the land
Don't want to join the job hunting queue
Just want to sit here and hold out my hand

[Chorus]
Sleeping all day and sitting up all night
Poncing fags thats alright
We're on the dole and we're proud of it
We're ready for five more years

[Verse 3]
You can keep the politicians and what they do
You can keep your songs about the down and outs
You can praise the politicians if you knew
Theyre responsible for us down and outs
[Verse 4]
Cheers to the Government who cause redundancies
Cheers to the unions who make men strike
Cheers to the men who bring the country to its knees
And cheers to us layabouts, the life we like

[Chorus]
Sleeping all day and sitting up all night
Poncing fags thats alright
We're on the dole and we're proud of it
We're ready for five more years

[Chorus]
Sleeping all day staying up all night
Poncing fags thats alright
We're on the dole and we're proud of it
We're ready for five more years
We're ready for five more years
We're ready for five more years
We're ready for five more years
