Work, work, work, wor,
I could be a banker make a buck or two
I could even be at school
Or I could drive a taxi
I could drive a hearse
There are few things could be worse
Cos I'm not getting younger
Life's too good to work
That is something I'm learning
Everybody wants to work
No, no, not me
Everybody wants to work
No, no not me
Everybody wants to work
No, no, not me, not me.
Well I could sleep till lunchtime
There's nothing else to do
Perhaps I'm better off than you
Cos when I'm getting older
Life's too good to work
I'll tell you something disturbing
Everybody wants to work
No, no, not me
Everybody wants to work
Oh no, not me
Everybody wants to work
Ah, ah, not me, not me
Everybody wants to work
No, no, no, no, not me
Doctor, lawyer, banker, fool
Doctor, lawyer, banker, fool
Doctor, lawyer, banker, fool
Doctor, lawyer, banker, fool
Doctor, lawyer, banker, fool
Doctor, lawyer, banker, fool
Everybody wants to work
No, no, not me
(Repeat)
