The Clash - Career Opportunities (Child Version) lyrics

(The Clash)

They offered me the office,

offered me the shop

They said I'd better take anything they'd got

Do you wanna make tea at the BBC?

Do you wanna be, do you really wanna be a cop?

Career opportunities are the ones that never knock

Every job they offer you is to keep you out the dock

Career opportunities, the ones that never knock

I hate all of my school's rules

They just think that I'm another fool

Bus driver....ambulance man....ticket inspector

I don't understand

They're gonna have to introduce conscription

They're gonna have to take away my prescription

If they wanna get me making toys

If they wanna get me, I got no choice

Careers

Careers

Careers

Career opportunities, the ones that never knock
