   "Industrial Disease", one of my favorite songs!   
      
    Now, warning lights are flashing down at quality control   
    Somebody threw a spanner, they threw him in the hole   
    There's rumors in the loading bay and anger in the town   
    Somebody blew the whistle, and the walls came down   
    There's a meetin' in the boardroom, they're tryin' to trace the smell   
    There's a leakin' in the washroom, there's a sneak-in personnel   
    Somewhere in the corridors someone was heard to sneeze   
    Goodness me, could this be industrial disease?   
      
    Caretaker was crucified for sleeping at his post   
    Refusing to be pacified, it's him they blame the most   
    Watchdog got rabies, the foreman got the fleas   
    Everyone concerned about industrial disease   
    There's panic on the switchboard, tongues in knots   
    Some come out in sympathy, some come out in spots   
    Some blame the management, some the employees   
    Everybody knows it's the industrial disease   
      
    Yeah, now the work force is disgusted, downs tools, walks   
    Innocence is injured, experience just talks   
    Everyone seeks damages, everyone agrees that   
    These are classic symptoms of a monetary squeeze   
    On ITV and BBC they talk about the curse   
    Philosophy is useless, theology is worse   
    History boils over, there's an economics freeze   
    Sociologists invent words that mean "industrial disease"
