Lyrics

Dole Q

Life on the dole in the 1980s

Life on the dole is no fun

Life on the dole, aven't got any money

Life on the dole is no fun

Life on the dole

It's no fun

It's no fun, the role

Life on the dole in the 1980s

Life on the dole is no fun

It's no fun

It's no fun

It's no fun

It's no fun

It's Saturday night and you've got no money

So you have to walk the streets

It's Saturday night and you can't go the pub

Cos you can't afford the rent

Life on the dole

It's no fun

It's no fun, the role

Life on the dole in the 1980s

Life on the dole is no fun

It's no fun

It's no fun

It's no fun

It's no fun

It's no fun

It's no fun

It's no fun

It's no fun
