The Day The Work Is Done
When all the work is doneThe work is doneA place for everything til everything is in it's placeAnd every setting sunWhen the work was doneWas a day that didn't go to wasteWhen all the work is doneIt will be doneProducing everything for everything to be replacedAnd in dirty towns we will settle downManufacture for the human race
The greatest story that was ever told in the lights of historyWas the grand designs of other menAnd they built those walls for you and me
So don't start thinking we can start againStart a riot in the streets my friendOr they'll start pulling us apart againCos idle hands make idle menDon't start thinking with your heart againCos idle hands make idle men
When the work is done, the work is doneWe'll be bionic and beyond the circuits of our mindsWe'll get nothing done under electric sunLeave the weight of labour far behindWe're the greatest story that was ever toldBut we don't know where we're fromAnd the walls became but a memoryOf the days when all the work begun
So don't start thinking we can start againStart a riot in the streets my friendOr they'll start pulling us apart againCos idle hands make idle men
Rejoice the day, the day the work is doneRejoice the day, the day the work is done
Everybody's counting hoursEverybody's counting hours
Til the day the work is doneTil the day the work is done
So don't start thinking we can start againStart a riot in the streets my friendOr they'll start pulling us apart againCos idle hands make idle men
So don't start thinking we can start againStart a riot in the streets my friendOr they'll start pulling us apart againCos idle hands make idle men
Rejoice the day, the day the work is doneRejoice the day, the day the work is done
Everybody's counting hoursEverybody's counting hours
