Lyrics for Do They Owe Us a Living? - Live 7/8/1979

Fuck the politically minded Here's something I want to say About the state of nation The way they treat us today At school they give you shit Drop you in the pit You try and try and try to get out But you can't Because they've fucked you about Then you're a prime example Of how they must not be This is just a sample Of what they've done to you and me Do they owe us a living? Of course they do! Of course they do! Do they owe us a living? Of course they do! Of course they do! Do they owe us a living? OF COURSE THEY FUCKING DO! They don't want me anymore Cause I threw it on the floor They used to call me sweet thing But I'm nobody's plaything And now that I am different They'd love to bust my head They'd love to see me cop-out They'd love to see me dead Do they owe us a living? Of course they do! Of course they do! Do they owe us a living? Of course they do! Of course they do! Do they owe us a living? OF COURSE THEY FUCKING DO! The living that is owed to me I'm never going to get They've buggered this old world Up to their necks in debt They'd give you a lobotomy For something you ain't done They'll make you an epitomy Of everything that's wrong Do they owe us a living? Of course they do! Of course they do! Do they owe us a living? Of course they do! Of course they do! Do they owe us a living? OF COURSE THEY FUCKING DO! Don't take any notice What the public think They're so hyped up with T.V. They just don't want to think They'll use you as a target For demands and for advice And if you don't want to wear it They'll say you're full of vice Do they owe us a living? Of course they do! Of course they do! Do they owe us a living? Of course they do! Of course they do! Do they owe us a living? OF COURSE THEY FUCKING DO!
