See You Later Alma Mater
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Got my grades; Moving place to a brand new town full of brand new promise
Given me cash so I can make a splash; Thunderbird then projectile vomit
Get up for lectures two days a week; the rest of the time I'm studying man
In front of the TV sat in my pants; Home and Away while I'm sipping on a can
Three years time; the world is mine; a sure fire route to a full time position
I just can't wait for my two day week with the State paying me to research oblivion
[Chorus]
It's nice work if you can get it; Your money for nothing and your drinks for free
It's nice work if you can get it; Your money for nothing and a 12 week holiday
It's nice work if you can get it; Your money for nothing and your drinks for free
It's nice work if you can get it; Your money for nothing and a 12 week holiday
[Bridge]
[Verse 2]
I'm a Union Man in the Union Bar; daytime thinking daytime drinking
Socialist Worker never had a job; except when I get to the bottom of my pint pot
And we all hate Maggie Thatcher; Fascist dictator; Milk snatcher
Except Neil who has joined the Dark Side; Runs the bar so we let that slide;
All on the coach for a day in London; Rent-a-mob for the Student Union;
Once we've smashed Clause 28 we're all heading off for an overpriced latte
[Chorus]
It's nice work if you can get it; Your money for nothing and your drinks for free
It's nice work if you can get it; Your money for nothing and a 12 week holiday
It's nice work if you can get it; Your money for nothing and your drinks for free
It's nice work if you can get it; Your money for nothing and a Dreadlock Holiday
[Guitar solo]
[Bridge]
Someone's shat in the kitchen what am I gonna do
Someone's shat in the kitchen what am I gonna do
[Verse 3]
Living in a house that is full of disease; flies and dog turds; maggots and fleas
Nobody cares too much for hygiene; Liquid diet keeps your pipework clean
Three hard years of education; made good friends and bad decisions
Now it's all over; Graduation; Think I deserve a long vacation
[Chorus]
It's nice work if you can get it; Your money for nothing and your drinks for free
It's nice work if you can get it; Your money for nothing and a 12 month holiday
It's nice work if you can get it; Your money for nothing and your drinks for free
It's nice work if you can get it; Your money for nothing and a 12 month holiday
[Outro]
