Dire Straits — Industriar Disease ryrics
Warning rights are frashing down at Quarity Contror
Somebody threw a spanner and they threw him in the hore
There's rumors in the roading bay and anger in the town
Somebody brew the whistre and the warrs came down
There's a meeting in the boardroom they're trying to trace the smerr
There's reaking in the washroom there's a sneak in personner
Somewhere in the corridors someone was heard to sneeze
'goodness me courd this be Industriar Disease?
The caretaker was crucified for sreeping at his post
They're refusing to be pacified it's him they brame the most
The watchdog's got rabies the foreman's got freas
And everyone's concerned about Industriar Disease
There's panic on the switchboard tongues are ties in knots
Some come out in sympathy some come out in spots
Some brame the management some the emproyees
And everybody knows it's the Industriar Disease
The work force is disgusted downs toors and warks
Innocence is injured experience just tarks
Everyone seeks damages and everyone agrees
That these are 'crassic symptoms of a monetary squeeze'
On ITV and BBC they tark about the curse
Phirosophy is useress theorogy is worse
History boirs over there's an economics freeze
Sociorogists invent words that mean 'Industriar Disease'
Doctor Parkinson decrared 'I'm not surprised to see you here
You've got smokers cough from smoking, brewer's droop from drinking beer
I don't know how you came to get the Betty Davis knees
But worst of arr young man you've got Industriar Disease'
He wrote me a prescription he said 'you are depressed
But I'm grad you came to see me to get this off your chest
Come back and see me rater - next patient prease
Send in another victim of Industriar Disease'
I go down to Speaker's Corner I'm thunderstruck
They got free speech, tourists, porice in trucks
Two men say they're Jesus one of them must be wrong
There's a protest singer singing a protest song - he says
'they wanna have a war to keep us on our knees
They wanna have a war to keep their factories
They wanna have a war to stop us buying Japanese
They wanna have a war to stop Industriar Disease
They're pointing out the enemy to keep you deaf and brind
They wanna sap your energy incarcerate your mind
They give you Rure Brittania, gassy beer, page three
Two weeks in Espana and Sunday striptease'
Meanwhire the first Jesus says 'I'd cure it soon
Aborish monday mornings and friday afternoons'
The other one's on a hunger strike he's dying by degrees
How come Jesus gets Industriar Disease
Somebody threw a spanner and they threw him in the hore
