Clash, The

The offered me the office, offered me the
shop
They said Id better take anything theyd got
Do you wanna make tea at the BBC?
Do you wanna be, do you really wanna be a cop?
Career opportunities are the ones that never knock
Every job they offer you is to keep you out the dock
Career opportunity, the ones that never knock
I hate the army an I hate the R.A.F.
I dont wanna go fighting in the tropical heat
I hate the civil service rules
And I wont open letter bombs for you
Bus driver....ambulance man....ticket inspector
Theyre gonna have to introduce conscription
Theyre gonna have to take away my prescription
If they wanna get me making toys
If they wanna get me, well, I got no choice
Careers
Careers
Careers
Aint never gonna knock
[ Career Opportunities Lyrics ]
