Lyric Matthew & Son

Up at eight, you can t be late

for Matthew & Son, he won t wait.

Watch them run down to platform one
And the eight-thirty train to Matthew & Son.

Matthew & Son, the work s never done, there s always something new.
The files in your head, you take them to bed, you re never ever through.
And they ve been working all day, all day, all day!

There s a five minute break and that s all you take,
for a cup of cold coffee and a piece of cake.

Matthew & Son, the work s never done, there s always something new.
The files in your head, you take them to bed, you re never ever through.
And they ve been working all day, all day, all day!

He s got people who ve been working for fifty years
No one asks for more money cuz nobody cares
Even though they re pretty low and their rent s in arrears

Matthew & Son, Matthew & Son, Matthew & Son, Matthew & Son,
And they ve been working all day, all day, all day!
