Verse 1

Standing at the bar on a Saturday night

Someone wants a fight and I know that Im up for it

Ten pints of lager and Im feeling all right

Unemployed and gutted and my lifes going nowhere

Chorus 1

x 4

Lifes going nowhere...

Verse 2

Wake up Sunday morning smell of beer in the air

Read the Sunday papers to make sense of this crazy world

Im one of lifes good guys but somewhere it went wrong

Society has trapped me and my lifes going nowhere

Chorus 2

Verse 3

Another Monday comes the job centre calls me

A woman tells me about lots of job opportunities

From the mundane to the boring feels like my hands are tied

Im an educated man and my lifes going nowhere

Chorus 3

Verse 4

I did everything right from the start up to now

Got an education even went university

But now I swim in debt I dont know which way to turn

Im screaming for some help coz my lifes going nowhere

Chorus 4

x 4

Going nowhere, going nowhere, going nowhere...

Chorus 5

Chorus 6
