Who Gives a Damn

Linval Thompson

Running for the bus in my flash blue suit
Someone shouts out poof
So I put in the boot
I don't want to wear it
It's my boss that tells me to
So when you laugh at me
You only laugh at you

Anyway who gives a damn
I'm doing the best I can
Anyway who gives a damn
I'm doing the best I can
Everybody's on a lead
We're all dogsbody's

Look at me in anger
But I've got to survive
So when you look at me
You better run and hide
I don't want to go to work
But I've got to get my pay
The weekend's getting nearer
I won't go in on Monday

Anyway who gives a damn
I'm doing the best I can
Anyway who gives a damn
I'm doing the best I can
Everybody's on a lead
We're all dogsbody's

Looking out the window
People everywhere
But nobody's looking at me
'cause nobody really cares
Two stops to go
I'll soon be there
But it's five past eight
Oh shit I'm late

Anyway who gives a damn
I'm doing the best I can
Anyway who gives a damn
I'm doing the best I can
Everybody's on a lead
We're all dogsbody's

I've listened to the gossip
From my row to the next
Some little boys' lost his conkers
And his aunties budgies' dead
I don't think I can take much more
Of this week and the next
But it ain't no good me worrying
It'll always be the same

Anyway who gives a damn
I'm doing the best I can
Anyway who gives a damn
I'm doing the best I can
Everybody's on a lead
We're all being taken for a walk
