| [00:55] | Now warning lights are flashing down at Quality Control |
| [00:59] | Somebody threw a spanner, they threw him in the hole |
| [01:02] | There's rumors in the loading bay and anger in the town |
| [01:06] | Somebody blew the whistle and the walls came down |
| [01:09] | There's a meeting in the boardroom they're trying to trace the smell |
| [01:12] | There's leaking in the washroom there's a sneak in personnel |
| [01:15] | Somewhere, in a corridor, someone was heard to sneeze |
| [01:19] | Goodness me, could this be Industrial Disease? |
| [01:22] | Caretaker was crucified for sleeping at his post |
| [01:25] | Refusing to be pacified it's him they blame the most |
| [01:28] | Watchdog got rabies, the foreman got fleas |
| [01:31] | Everyone concerned about Industrial Disease |
| [01:34] | There's panic on the switchboard, tongues in knots |
| [01:38] | Some come out in sympathy, some come out in spots |
| [01:41] | Some blame the management, some the employees |
| [01:44] | Everybody knows it's an Industrial Disease |
| [01:48] | |
| [02:00] | Yeah now, the work force is disgusted, downs, tools, walks |
| [02:04] | Innocence is injured, experience just talks |
| [02:07] | Everyone seeks damages, everyone agrees that |
| [02:10] | "These are classic symptoms of a monetary squeeze" |
| [02:13] | On ITV and BBC they talk about the curse |
| [02:16] | Philosophy is useless, theology is worse |
| [02:20] | History boils over, there's an economics freeze |
| [02:23] | Sociologists invent words that mean "Industrial... Disease" |
| [02:32] | |
| [02:38] | Doctor Parkinson declared, "I'm not surprised to see you here |
| [02:42] | You've got smokers cough from smoking, and brewer's droop from drinking beer |
| [02:45] | I don't know how you came to get the Bette Davis knees |
| [02:48] | But worst of all, young man, you've got Industrial Disease!" |
| [02:51] | He wrote me a prescription, he said, "You are depressed. |
| [02:55] | I'm glad you came to see me to get this off your chest. |
| [02:58] | Come back and see me later. (DING) next patient, please! |
| [03:01] | Send in another victim of Industrial Disease. (ha ha)" |
| [03:05] | |
| [03:08] | ("Ah!") |
| [03:09] | |
| [03:10] | ("Splendid!") |
| [03:11] | |
| [03:17] | And I go down to Speaker's Corner, I'm thunderstruck |
| [03:20] | They got free speech, tourists, police in trucks |
| [03:24] | Two men say they're Jesus... one of them must be wrong! |
| [03:27] | There's a protest singer, he's singing a protest song |
| [03:30] | He says, "They wanna have a war to keep their factories |
| [03:34] | They wanna have a war to keep us on our knees |
| [03:37] | They wanna have a war to stop the spying Japanese |
| [03:40] | They wanna have a war to stop Industrial Disease |
| [03:43] | They're pointing out the enemy to keep you deaf and blind |
| [03:46] | They wanna sap your energy incarcerate your mind |
| [03:50] | Give you Rule Brittania, gassy beer, page three |
| [03:53] | Two weeks in Espana and Sunday striptease." |
| [03:56] | Meanwhile, the first Jesus says, "I'll cure him soon, |
| [03:59] | Abolish Monday mornings and Friday afternoons." |
| [04:02] | The other one's out on hunger strike he's dying by degrees |
| [04:05] | How come Jesus gets Industrial Disease!? |
