Cat Stevens

Up at eight, you cant be late
for Matthew & Son, he wont wait.
Watch them run down to platform one
And the eight-thirty train to Matthew & Son.
Matthew & Son, the works never done, theres always something new.
The files in your head, you take them to bed, youre never ever through.
And theyve been working all day, all day, all day!
Theres a five minute break and thats all you take,
for a cup of cold coffee and a piece of cake.
Matthew & Son, the works never done, theres always something new.
The files in your head, you take them to bed, youre never ever through.
And theyve been working all day, all day, all day!
Hes got people whove been working for fifty years
No one asks for more money cuz nobody cares
Even though theyre pretty low and their rents in arrears
Matthew & Son, Matthew & Son, Matthew & Son, Matthew & Son,
And theyve been working all day, all day, all day!
[ Matthew & Son Lyrics ]
