ENEMY, THE - Nation Of Checkout Girls lyrics

A nation of the finest shopkeepers Now a nation of cloudy eyed checkout girls Career opportunities love You can stack the shelves Or if you're lucky you can work the tills And all the lads are packed off fighting Now that you'd know 'Cause no one ever says a word Blair's legacy a barrel of oil Depression recession It's a mess a bloody mess and that's all Hello we're the generation Who do what we're told By the corporation hello Hello we're the generation Who do what we're told By the corporations hello A nation of the finest shopkeepers Now a nation that's quietly answering calls Career opportunities love You can man the phones If you're lucky you'll scrub the floors And all the lads are packed off fighting They never knew Thought that they might see the world Shellshocked in a dusty old hell hole Wishing for the kisses Of a cloudy eyed checkout girl Yeah that's all Hello we're the generation Who do what we're told By the corporation hello Hello we're the generation Who do what we're told By the corporations hello Oh hello Hello Hello Hello Generation corporation hello Hello we're the generation Who do what we're told By the corporation hello
