From the cradle to the grave From the present to the cave All we're doing most of our lives Is for the most part trying to survive Aspirations all every well Your degree it looks really swell Only problem always the same It's heads their needing and not a brain welcome to the world of work You can start by giving Up the notion that now you are swell Welcome to the world of work It's a job and you can take it from me No guarantee All your life you dreamt about this Sole ambition since you were a kid Now it's happened how does it feel Dream is over this for real Sat for hours in front of a screen mouse will tell you what you are seeing When you get home how to relax Another screen for you to look at Welcome to the world of work It's a kind of living Where you give more than you'll ever receive Welcome to the world of work Only place a loyal servant can be kicked in the teeth Mind your manners mind how you go Union rep. now does as he's told One at all out used to mean stop Now you're frightened of losing your job Small percentage do as they please Most if not all have family trees You can see them scuttling about Silver teaspoons stuck in their mouth Welcome to the world of work Its a place where giving ls the price you pay for something to eat Welcome to the world of work It's where surplus to requirements could be You they don't need Welcome to the world of work It's a nice beginning Followed shortly by a coffee or tea Welcome to the world of work After which you will be run off your feet Trying to compete
