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]
