Living With Unemployment Lyrics


I was living in a new town
I had problems with my girlfriend
So I moved on up to London town
Where they say it was all happening, going down.Living in a bedsit
Bunking on the tube train
Sleeping all day long
'Cause you've got no work
You've got no life
You sit at home
And watch televisionLiving with unemploymentI... I ain't got a job
And... there's no work in the city
They... they always try to blame it on the blacks
When it's really those in power who stab you in the back
Living in a bedsit
Bunking on the tube train
Sleeping all day long
'Cause you've got no work
You've got no life

You sit at home
And watch televisionLiving with unemploymentRound our way
We ain't got a lot
Another five years on the dole
I know I'll be left to rot
But now I'll join the army
Believe it or not
I'm going to a foreign land
I'm gonna get shot
Living in a bedsit
Bunking on the tube train
Sleeping all day long
'Cause you've got no work
You've got no life
You sit at home
And watch televisionLiving with unemployment
Oh it gets so lonely
Living with unemployment
It gets so frustrating
Living with unemployment
Oh it gets so lonely
Living with unemployment
It gets so frustratingAnd it's lonely for them
Lonely for me
Lonely for all of us
Can't you see
That it's lonely for them
Lonely for me
Lonely for all of us
Can't you seeWhen you're not at work
They treat you like dirt
When you're out of work
They treat you like dirt
When you're not at work
They treat you like dirt
When you're out of work
They treat you like dirt
Treat you treat you treat you like dirt
Treat you treat you treat you like dirt
Treat you treat you treat you like dirt
When you're not at workLiving with unemployment
Oh it gets so lonely
Living with unemployment
It gets so frustrating
Living with unemployment
Oh it gets so lonely
Living with unemployment
It gets so frustratingLiving with unemployment
Living with unemployment
Living with unemployment
Living with unemployment

Welsh punk band The Oppressed began their infamous career in the early '80s as an outlet for Roddy Moreno, an outspoken advocate for racial unity in the skinhead and Oi! scenes. He formed Oi! Records, a short-lived but highly influential label that served as the outlet for the Oppressed's music. They performed throughout the '80s, but as time wore on Moreno became far more involved in S.H.A.R.P. (Skin Heads Against Racial Prejudice) and eventually disbanded the group.
