          Nobody ever works, yeah nothing gets done
          We hang fire
          We hang fire

          You know marrying money is a full time job
          I don't need the aggravation - I'm a lazy slob

                        I hang fire
                        I hang fire, put it on the wire, baby
                        Hang fire, put it on the wire, baby

                                      We've got nothing to eat, we got nowhere to work
                                      Nothing to drink - we just lost our shirts
                                      I'm on the dole, we ain't for hire
