(andy partridge) Leisure They taught me how to work, But they cant teach me how to shirk correctly. As you see, Science once again robs us of our jobs. Theyve put a micro-chip in my place, I hide behind screen of aggression nowadays, Its just a way of saving some face. So now Im permanently drunk, Like the rest of the race with, Leisure. If you think Im clowning, I assure you that Im drowning here in, Leisure They taught me how to work, But they cant teach me how to shirk correctly. I spend all day, And all my allowance on t.v. games. Amusement heaven at the flick of a switch. Instead of a lathe I busy my fingers nowadays, By scoring goals with the gentlest twitch. Ive forgotten how to use my legs to invade the pitch. Leisure If you think Im clowning, I assure you that Im drowning here in, Leisure They taught me how to work, But they cant teach me how to shirk correctly. They had retired me fore I left school, (just saw no point in the standing in line) So I spend lots of time lounging at home, (why not come in cos the carpet is fine) What a waste of breath it is, Searching for the jobs that dont exist. So now Im permanently drunk, Like the rest of the race with, Leisure. If you think Im clowning, I assure you that Im drowning here in, Leisure They taught me how to work, But they cant teach me how to shirk correctly. Lazybones, looking through the sun Howd you ever expect to find your days work ...?
