lyrics

they'll all be living in a world apart
where the carpet's deeper than their heart
where the battle's lost and one
by the end of your first term
when you realise that the only route
is slipping on a business suit
when you realise that's all there is to learn.
and you can say it ain't me babe
sing that you won't be no one's slave
and stick two fingers to your chapel tower,
but the pond is there to dip your toe
you can always come back out you know
you'll no be stuck there til your final hour.
they'll all be living
in the city
for a year
or maybe two
and then they'll leave it
and then they'll go
and they'll do something
they always wanted to do.
you've got a heart the size of any dear
you got people lining up to hear you
talk and sit and liven up the day
why'd you all wanna go and live in there
that little box the red lie's lair
coaxed by words like women's rights and equal pay
and you can say it ain't me babe
sing that you won't be no one's slave...
