Welcome to the whole week


And now and then when I'm in the mood
I might get up at the crack of noon
Then take a wander down to the arcade
Might as well clock up a great high score
and hang around with my mates before
I wander back to find my dole's been paid
Stay outdoors, play football, or simply play the fool
If it rains go back in, you can always watch Play School

Don't try to tell me that it ain't a lot
I'm gonna make the best of what I've got
So I have no job, welcome to the whole week

I've always got my LPs to play
Or find a friend to get a loan and tape
And any time it's time to eat again
Before you know, it's any night and so
you meet the gang and go along the road
Take any chance to have a drink or ten
Share the crack, blokes with cash
Get a hit of something else
Out all night, shout and fight
It makes you feel that you're yourself

Some of you have got it in for me
I don't need that or your sympathy
So I have no job, welcome to the whole week

If you don't mind, I've decided to live my life
Well, it's always something to do

My girl comes round and all we do is talk
For hours on end, or we don't talk at all
While wemore, or less, as we please
You keep on that it's wrong
We haven't earned lives of ease
But there's no work to do
And I won't queue up on my knees

I never said that this was my ideal
But still I'm gonna feel and make it real
So I have no job, welcome to the whole week

I never promised you I'd go away
You can't ignore me cos I'm here to stay
So it's too bad, let me at the whole week

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Stiff Little Fingers are a Northern Irish punk rock band from Belfast, formed in 1977. They started out as a schoolboy band called Highway Star (named after the Deep Purple song) doing rock covers, until they discovered punk. They split up after six years and four albums, although they reformed five years later, in 1987. Despite major personnel changes, they are still touring and recording as of 2010. Jake Burns, their lead singer, is the only member to have been with the band during all its incarnations, although in March 2006, original bass guitarist Ali McMordie rejoined them following the departure of The Jam bass player Bruce Foxton after fifteen years.
