Thompson, Richard - Last Shift Lyrics
Stow your gear and charge your lamp
Say goodbye to dark and damp
DSS will pay your stamp
Last shift, close her down
Back there on the mucky side
Take the cage for one more ride
Last shift, close her down
Put the business in the black
And they've stabbed us in the back
With old school ties and little white lies
They left our town for scrap
Golden handshake, sling our hooks
Now our kids steal pension books
Last shift, close her down
Now the scrapper boys infest
And the wrecking balls caress
Like vermin round a burial ground
They catch the smell of death
Old Grimey's lost its soul
And we're beggars on the dole
Last shift, close her down
Last shift, close her down
