A man without a job is a stranger to the seasons

The April rain will soak you like the worst November brings

And we're tired of the excuses and the carefully worded reasons

Without Winter there's no Summer

Without Autumn there's no Spring.



When the factories close down the life bleeds from the town.

Some politicians tells us, 'move and build another home',

But weren't they voted in to lead us?

No one said they had to feed us.

If they'd get us back our jobs

Then we would take care of our own.



Chorus

For a man without a job

Is a stranger to the seasons

No music to the cycle of the changes will he hear.

Like a band without a drummer

There's no Winter, Spring, or Summer

There's no rhythm to the passing of the

Months that make the year.



Everyone is poorer for the millions

Who keep growing

Whose season stays at Autumn

And whose only colour's grey

Though we get by on the dole

It feeds the body, starves the soul

And stirs the bitterness that's growing

In the ones who've been betrayed.



Chorus

    In the closed down market
    Kicking up the papers with his worn out shoes
    In his eyes you see no pride..."
  • Michael In The Garden
    "Out in the garden, amongst the bushes, Michael is crying.
    Caught in a spider's web, its broken wings beating, a butterfly dying.

    la, la, la, la, la, la, la..."

    Rather have a dandelion
    Don't like weddings much either now
    And things that you can't rely on...."

    We'll eat here, take this seat near the door.

    And I think that it might
    If not relieve all the pain that I feel
    At least help me to sleep tonight...."
  • Country Boys
    "I woke up this morning, I got booze on my breath
    And around my brain from the night before
    There's a cigarette burned out upon the table
    And a glass smashed out on the floor..."

    Thinking his troubles will fade out of mind.
    Pity the boy who marries for beauty..."
