歌詞
Up at eight you can't be lateFor matthew & son he won't wait
Watch them run down to platform one
And the eight thirty train to matthew &son
Matthew & son the work's never done
There's always something new
The files in your head you take them to bed
You're never ever through
And they've been workin' all day all dayall day
There's a five minute break and that's allyou take
For a cup of cold coffee and a piece ofcake
Matthew & son the work's never done
There's always something new
The files in your head you take them to bed
You're never ever through
And they've been workin' all day all dayall day
He's got people who've been workin' forfifty years
No one asks for more money 'cause nobodydares
Even though they're pretty low and theirrent's in arrears
Matthew & son matthew & son
Matthew & son matthew & son
And they've been workin' all day all dayall day
