Sign On - Rat Boy

Different pubs, same name, kids out in the rain

Drain on society, nothing on the telly

Barely at school, acting like a fool

Well, I could’ve done well if things had gone better

Slurred singing, wrong lyrics on the dancefloor

Not rich, not poor, what you living for?

Poundland pubs and Wormwood scrubs

Last night’s takeaway in Tupperware tubs

I lost my job in Wetherspoons

And since that day my bank has hit zero

Hopefully things’ll pick up next year though

And if they don’t then, well…

It won’t be long

Before I sign on

Is it right or is it wrong?

I’ve got no money, it’s all gone

It won’t be long

Before I sign on

Is it right or is it wrong?

I’ve got no money, it’s all gone

Every week do the lottery, daylight robbery

Spend more on tickets than it’s worth in the long run

Young, dumb, living off mum

Waiting for the right time to come

Can’t afford the bus that I used to run for

Lurking on the wrong side of the law, what for?

What’s more, never been abroad

A week around here’s enough to make you crazy

It won’t be long

Before I sign on

Is it right or is it wrong?

I’ve got no money, it’s all gone

It won’t be long

Before I sign on

Is it right or is it wrong?

I’ve got no money, it’s all gone

All my shoes have holes in the soles

Live my life in second hand clothes

All my shoes have holes in the soles

Live my life in second hand clothes

It won’t be long

Before I sign on

Is it right or is it wrong?

I’ve got no money, it’s all gone

It won’t be long

Before I sign on

Is it right or is it wrong?

I’ve got no money, it’s all gone
