More Lyrics: NELSON STREET SPACE INVADERS

May 13, 2009 by David Gordon

by Kid Carpet

All the people sitting behind the desks are fat
All the people standing front of the desks are thin
All the people sitting behind the desks are fat
All the people standing front of the desks are thin

Nelson Street Space Invaders
Dodging questions. Just sign the papers
Nelson Street Space Invaders
Give me a print-out, I’ll make you famous

So take my name and let me go
Don’t line me up a job with every other Joe
Coz I just can’t say no
Oh, please have mercy on my soul

Job Centre brand-new trainers
Interviews for Lion Tamers
The benefits are outrageous
Here we are now, entertain us

Signing point number one
Five past nine on a Monday morning
Come on

All the people sitting behind the desks are fat
All the people standing front of the desks are thin

So take my name and let me go
Don’t line me up a job with every other Joe
Coz I just can’t say no
Oh, please have mercy on my soul

Nelson Street Space Invaders
Dodging questions. Just sign the papers
Nelson Street Space Invaders
Give me a print-out, I’ll make you famous

Job Seeker, you’re a world beater
Don’t have a partner. No-one to look after
But I sure can remember my NI number

All the people sitting behind the desks are fat
All the people standing front of the desks are thin
