about

'Love on the Dole' is the 4th single from 'Postcards from the British Empire: 12 Singles in 12 Months'

lyrics

Love on the Dole

Shall we both sign on?
Shall we sign on in the great depression?
Shall we quit our jobs?
Shall we quit before the government takes them?

Darling, it's not charming,
In fact it's alarming,
That we're just trying to make ends meet...

It's gonna' be a tough year (now everything is so dear)
I spent the rent on Whiskey & Beer!
I'm gonna' sell my soul,
Resign myself to Love on the Dole.

Darling, it's not charming,
In fact it's alarming,
That we're just trying to make ends meet...

Love on the Dole...
Oh oh oh.

Slave to the wage to the wage I'm a slave,
Don't be a slave to the wage.

Love on the Dole...
Oh oh oh.
