When all the work is done
 The work is done
 place for everything til everything is in it's place
 And every setting sun
 When the work was done
 Was a day that didn't go to waste
 When all the work is done
 It will be done
 Producing everything for everything to be replaced
 And in dirty towns we will settle down
 Manufacture for the human race

 The greatest story that was ever told in the lights of history
 Was the grand designs of other men
 And they built those walls for you and me

 So don't start thinking we can start again
 Start a riot in the streets my friend
 Or they'll start pulling us apart again
 Cos idle hands make idle men
 Don't start thinking with your heart again
 Cos idle hands make idle men

 When the work is done, the work is done
 We'll be bionic and beyond the circuits of our minds
 We'll get nothing done under electric sun
 Leave the weight of labour far behind
 We're the greatest story that was ever told
 But we don't know where we're from
 And the walls became but a memory
 Of the days when all the work begun

 So don't start thinking we can start again
 Start a riot in the streets my friend
 Or they'll start pulling us apart again
 Cos idle hands make idle men

 Rejoice the day, the day the work is done
 Rejoice the day, the day the work is done

 Everybody's counting hours
 Everybody's counting hours

 Til the day the work is done
 Til the day the work is done

 So don't start thinking we can start again
 Start a riot in the streets my friend
 Or they'll start pulling us apart again
 Cos idle hands make idle men

 So don't start thinking we can start again
 Start a riot in the streets my friend
 Or they'll start pulling us apart again
 Cos idle hands make idle men

 Rejoice the day, the day the work is done
 Rejoice the day, the day the work is done

 Everybody's counting hours
 Everybody's counting hours
