[00:56.63]Now, warning lights are flashing down at quality control
[00:59.51]Somebody threw a spanner, they threw him in the hole
[01:03.40]There's rumors in the loading bay and anger in the town
[01:06.00]Somebody blew the whistle, and the walls came down
[01:09.35]There's a meetin' in the boardroom, they're tryin' to trace the smell
[01:12.52]There's a leakin' in the washroom, there's a sneak-in personnel
[01:16.14]Somewhere in the corridors someone was heard to sneeze
[01:19.13]Goodness me, could this be industrial disease?
[01:22.46]Caretaker was crucified for sleeping at his post
[01:25.49]Refusing to be pacified, it's him they blame the most
[01:28.72]Watchdog got rabies, the foreman got the fleas
[01:32.20]Everyone concerned about industrial disease
[01:35.22]There's panic on the switchboard, tongues in knots
[01:38.46]Some come out in sympathy, some come out in spots
[01:41.60]Some blame the management, some the employees
[01:44.67]Everybody knows it's the industrial disease
[01:49.47]
[02:00.30]Yeah, now the work force is disgusted, downs tools, walks
[02:04.60]Innocence is injured, experience just talks
[02:07.50]Everyone seeks damages, everyone agrees that
[02:10.53]These are classic symptoms of a monetary squeeze
[02:13.78]On ITV and BBC they talk about the curse
[02:16.74]Philosophy is useless, theology is worse
[02:20.00]History boils over, there's an economics freeze
[02:22.91]Sociologists invent words that mean "industrial disease"
[02:27.28]
[02:38.67]Doctor Parkinson declared, "I'm not surprised to see you here
[02:42.24]You've got smokers cough from smoking, brewer's droop from drinking beer
[02:45.73]I don't know how you came to get the Bette Davis knees
[02:48.84]But worst of all young man, you've got industrial disease"
[02:51.97]He wrote me a prescription, he said, "You are depressed
[02:55.16]But I'm glad you came to see me to get this off your chest
[02:58.47]Come back and see me later, next patient, please
[03:01.74]Send in another victim of industrial disease"
[03:05.71]
[03:08.21]Ah! Splendid
[03:12.18]
[03:16.97]Now, I go down to Speaker's Corner, I'm thunderstruck
[03:20.48]They got free speech tourists, police in trucks
[03:24.41]Two men say they're Jesus, one of them must be wrong
[03:27.46]There's a protest singer, he's singing a protest song
[03:30.27]He says, "They wanna have a war, keep their factories
[03:33.80]They wanna have a war to keep us on our knees
[03:36.85]They wanna have a war to stop us buying Japanese
[03:40.90]They wanna have a war to stop industrial disease
[03:43.57]They're pointing out the enemy to keep you deaf and blind
[03:46.62]They wanna sap your energy, incarcerate your mind
[03:49.87]Give ya "Rule Britannia", gassy beer, page three
[03:53.90]Two weeks in España and Sunday striptease"
[03:55.97]Meanwhile, the first Jesus says "I'll cure it soon
[03:59.58]Abolish Monday mornings and Friday afternoons"
[04:02.57]The other one's out on hunger strike, he's dying by degrees
[04:05.90]How come Jesus gets industrial disease?
