This song is just about the way shit jobs were foisted on the young during the late 70s, the line about taking away prescription is the state of the NHS which was struggling(as it is now) with lack of funding, the line about conscription is about reintroduction of civil service and the line about letter bombs is when Mick worked for a Social Services office where his job was to open letters, due to a bomb scare, Mick hated this due to the awful treatment of the Irish and Blacks at the offices
He wrote about the staff-these people here have no rock'n roll in thier lives
