Cat Stevens - Matthew & Son

Up at eight, you cant be late

For Matthew & son, he wont wait.

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

Matthew & son, the work's never done, theres always something new.
The files in your head, you take them to bed,
youre 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 works never done, theres always something new.
The files in your head, you take them to bed,
youre never ever through.
And theyve 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 'cause nobody cares
Even though they're pretty low and their rents in arrears

Matthew & son, Matthew & son, Matthew & son, Matthew & son,
And theyve been working all day, all day, all day!
