Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Financial hell, with no money to spend.
Money, a memory of the past
Free time and pleasure, with no beginning in sight
You?re guilty of your past.
Direction in life is a dead end street
No crossroads to decide
Your life, your death is a certainty
A job is merely a lie.
[Chorus]
Working hard all day
For a penny to pay
Praying to god your soul to keep
And then, you may survive
Working hard all day
For a penny to pay
Praying to god your soul to keep
And then, you may survive
[Verse 2]
You?re told that you must try harder now
If you want to succeed
But standing in a queue, is all you do
Collecting what they think you are due.
Your girl , she tells you that it?s not your fault
That everyone has to survive
But all you have are your worthless skills
Intelligence, intellect and crime
[Chorus]
Working hard all day
For a penny to pay
Praying to god your soul to keep
And then, you may survive
Working hard all day
For a penny to pay
Praying to god your soul to keep
And then, you may survive
[Verse 3]
The politicians say it?ll soon turn round
That change is on the way
But all you see are the queues for money
And that won?t change, no way!
[Chorus]
Working hard all day
For a penny to pay
Praying to god your soul to keep
And then, you may survive
Working hard all day
For a penny to pay
Praying to god your soul to keep
And then, you may survive
[Chorus break]
And if you decide that
Life?s worth living
Keep dreaming ?til the day you die
[Chorus]
Working hard all day
For a penny to pay
Praying to god your soul to keep
And then, you may survive
Working hard all day
For a penny to pay
Praying to god your soul to keep
And then, you may survive
