The caretaker was crucified for sleeping at his post
They're refusing to be pacified, it's him they blame the most.
The watchdog's got rabies, the foreman's got the fleas.
And everyone's concerned about Industrial Disease.
There's panic on the switchboard, tongues are tied in knots.
Some come out in sympathy, some come out in spots.
Some blame the management, some blame the employees.
And everybody knows it's the Industrial Disease.

Lady writer on the TV
She had all the brains and the beauty.

Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
Then I recall my fall from grace
Another time, another place.

You'll be slippered if you get him wrong
McIntyre's din booms loud in the gym And we've only got a little short song
