Unemployment Line

Now there's a new craze a-goin' 'round

It's gettin' bigger in most every town

From New York City out to Hollywood

Got everybody in the neighborhood

Down in the unemployment line

You got yourself a place and I got mine

We been here waitin' since the clock struck nine

Down in the unemployment line

Now every day you've got to fight the horde

Just to read what's on the bulletin board

When you go back and try and claim your space

Some other sucker come and stole your place

I hope the people in the government

Tell us how we're gonna pay the rent

How we're gonna get enough to eat

No that the workin' man is obsolete

If things keep goin' like they seem they do

Won't be long before they're down here too

And they can be a part of this here mob

Workin' nine to five to find a job

[CHORUS]
