Career Opportunities

[Verse 1]

They offered me the office, offered me the shop

They said I'd better take anything they'd got

Do you wanna make tea at the BBC?

Do you wanna be, do you really wanna be a cop?

[Chorus]

Career opportunity, the one that never knocks

Every job they offer you's to keep you out the dock

Career opportunity, the one that never knocks

[Verse 2]

I hate the army and I hate the RAF

I don't wanna go fighting in the tropical heat

I hate the civil service rules

I won't open letter bombs for you

[Chorus]

Career opportunity, the one that never knock

Every job they offer you's to keep you out the dock

Career opportunity, the one that never knock

[Bridge]

Oi

Bus driver

Ambulance man

The ticket inspector

I don't understand

[Verse 3]

They're gonna have to introduce conscription

They're gonna have to take away my prescription

If they wanna get me makin' toys

If they wanna get me, well, I got no choice

[Chorus]

Career opportunity, the one that never knock

Every job they offer you's to keep you out the dock

Career opportunity, the one that never knock

[Outro]

Career

Career

Career

It ain't never gonna knock
