First to comment 😄#☝. 😂 I just got offered a possible job yesterday!!! This song and my mom want me to turn it down. I'm sorry but I need the money and health insurance.
@brianmac Thanks for the advice. Yes I know I'm fortunate to have the option, but I just really want to work. I was told last month the interviews were moved to May because it's a new business and they had to finalize things. However with this virus I don't know nor do they where it stands, but like I say everything happens for a reason. It was moved for a reason and if it gets moved again or doesn't happen there's a reason. So I don't worry☺. Stay safe and healthy🙏💭💕
@brianmac I saved the on you sent because it's 8 hours so I will have to listen in spurts. 😂I have a short attention span, but let me know if you have anymore suggestions. Enjoy your day and stay safe and healthy🙏💭💕

I always had to listen very carefully to this record. I always thought that he was saying I've got one, I told them all, and your sacred college Ska. I learnt to know better though, after listening to it, a few times.
RIP, Terry!!!! We love and miss you!!!!!
I remember buying this single and every word came True,
If only I listened more carefully
This song is uncannily accurate
When we were 16, guys good memories 👍
One of the most iconic music videos was released with this track in 1980. Thanks to programmes such as TISWAS!
Rest in the Light
RIP Terry Hall!!
THORW UP THE OLD RULE BOOK AND START AGAIN. This one says it all always loved this production.
My town my era ohhhhh to go back to those days 😚
Good memories, I still had my hair.
But ya prolly shaved it off anyways haha! SKINHEAD!
What a banger
I got one art O level, now I'm a Government minister.
You're working at your leisure to learn the things you'll need
The promises you make tomorrow will carry no guarantee
I've seen your qualifications, you've got a Ph.D
I've got one art O level, it did nothing for me
Working for the rat race
You know you're wasting your time
Working for the rat race
You're no friend of mine
You plan your conversation to impress the college bar
Just talking about your mother and daddy's Jaguar
Wear your political t-shirt and sacred college scarf
Discussing the world's situation but just for a laugh
You'll be working for the rat race
You know you're wasting your time
Working for the rat race
You're no friend of mine
Working for the rat race
You know you're wasting your time
Working for the rat race
You're no friend of mine
Just working at your leisure to learn the things you won't need
The promises you make tomorrow will carry no guarantee
I've seen your qualifications, you've got a Ph.D
I've got an art O level, it did nothing for me
Working for the rat race
You know you're wasting your time
Working for the rat race
You're no friend of mine
This is so relevant 42 years later. Sublime.
Well I’m here so :)
You wanna see a magic trick?...
You're high right now...
