Unemployment life on the dole
No work for me no work at all
City and slums and poverty too
Hanging about with nothing to do

This is your life, this is your life
This is your life, this is your life

Go on back now nobody cares
Just carry on with their own affairs
And when someone else starts something bad
Remember the trouble they've always had

This is your life, this is your life
This is your life, this is your life

No red tape, no red book
Eamon Andrews don't give a
Boredom boredom in your minds
Hey you punks this is your life

This is your life, this is your life
This is your life, this is your life

This is your life, this is your life
This is your life, this is your life
