Someone Else To Blame Lyrics
Tell for yourself, watch me sweat, watch me crawl
Stretch me on the table, up against the wall
You can see for yourself, but you better not say
You're working four more hours every other day
See me suffer see me pain
Must be someone else to blame
See me suffer see me pain
There's more trouble at the dockyard
Party's shouting at the union
Short fuses on their anger
Workers in confusion
Then there's the vandals of the right
They stalk the streets at night
Got someone else to fight
Got someone else to blame
See me suffer...
You can speak for yourself
Before the moment is lost
But I don't wanna shout cos I' m counting the cost
I'm counting the cost
See me suffer...
Stretch me on the table, up against the wall
You can see for yourself, but you better not say
You're working four more hours every other day
Must be someone else to blame
See me suffer see me pain
Party's shouting at the union
Short fuses on their anger
Workers in confusion
Then there's the vandals of the right
They stalk the streets at night
Got someone else to fight
Got someone else to blame
Before the moment is lost
But I don't wanna shout cos I' m counting the cost
I'm counting the cost

I might be completely wrong but this song makes me think of the plight of lower-paid workers and undervalued staff who get paid crap by big greedy bosses and have no way to speak out against it.
