Over the hills and far away

Here's £67 on the dole
For those who out of bed will roll
To sign on and look for a job today
Over the hills and far away

Chorus;

O'er the hills and o'er the main
To Greece, Northern Ireland and to Spain
Peter and Martin command and we obey
Over the hills and far away

Through Java, C++ and Excel
Into the very pits of hell
We shall work and we shall stay
Over the hills and far away

[chorus]

Now though I travel far from N.I.
A part of me shall remain, bai
For you are with me night and day
*And* over the hills and far away

[chorus]

So fall in lads behind the dole
With our future black as coal
Along the road to come-what-may
Over the hills and far away

[chorus]

When ecomomic shite stalks the land
I'll nyther hold nor stay me' hand
But bugger off to win the day
Over the hills and far away

[chorus]

If I should fall to rise no more
As many dole monkeys did before
Please ask the DJ down the club to play
Over the hills and far away

[chorus]

Let property investors come and go
I'll stand ajudged by what I know
A dole monkey's life I'll ne'er gainsay
Over the hills and far away

[chorus]

Tony Bennett - It's the dole life

Oh, the dole life, full of fun seems to be the ideal
Mm, the dole life lets you hide all the sadness you feel
You won't really fall in love for you can't take the chance
So please be honest with yourself, don't try to fake your job searches

It's the dole life to be free and explore the unknown
Like the heartaches when you learn you must face them alone
Please remember I still want you, and in case you wonder why
Well, just get a job, kiss the dole life goodbye...
