Hey just to shed some light on that job thing- I live in Coventry where The Enemy are from, there was a major job layoff here from a car manufacture fairly recently. Coventry isn't the happiest of towns at the best of times and there was (and still is) a bleak feeling hanging round here ever since. I think this song is their reaction to the big companies who are outsourcing all their work and creating huge pockets of unemployment around the country. The lines in the streets are most likely the dole queues.
