Way beneath the working class
Way below the unemployed
Take a look and you will see
Millions working for the agency
You might call us a brand new class
You might think we're proud of nothing
Trained to jump at ringing bells
Who are we? We're the ne'er do wells
We're the underclass
We're the underclass
In England's green and pleasant land
Like Skinner's rats
Useless brats.
Like Skinner's rats
Useless brats!
Way beneath the working class
Way below the unemployed
Take a look and you will see
Millions working for the agency
Packing up boxes for a fiver an hour
While the supervisor watches from the searchlight tower
You give 'em of your best and take a load of abuse
And they can sack you in a minute with no excuse
We're the underclass
We're the underclass
In England's green and pleasant land
Like Skinner's rats
Useless brats.
Like Skinner's rats
Useless brats!
Reinforcement.
Small reward.
Conditioning.
Anxiety.
We're the underclass
We're the underclass
In England's green and pleasant land.
Like Skinner's rats
Useless brats
Like Skinner's rats
Useless brats!
