Woke up this morning
Yawned and scratched my skin (scratched my skin)
Think to myself now, what would this day bring?

Day after day spent walking the town (walking the town)
I play the fool, then I act the clown
But is it my fault that I'm unqualified
Clear from JA in Britain to reside
As an unemployed.. member of the public, yeah, yeah
An unemployed.. member of the public, yeah, yeah, yeah now

Look who's unemployed now
Look who's unemployed now
Look who's unemployed now
Look who's unemployed

It's not that I'm afraid of work you see (work you see)
I'll build computers, even chop down trees
My parents tell me that I'm no damn good (no damn good)
They're better of with a man of wood
So help me brothers now help me if you can (if you can)
'Cause after all I'm just a human man
Not just an unemployed.. member of the public, yeah, yeah
An unemployed.. member of the public, yeah, yeah, yeah now

Look who's unemployed now
Look who's unemployed now
Look who's unemployed now
Look who's unemployed

(..)

To all of those of you that work for your pay
Please be careful in the words which you say
To all of those not as fortunate as you
'Cause finding a job is not so easy to do
So keep it in mind that maybe someday
You just might end up in the very same way
As an unemployed.. member of the public, yeah, yeah
An unemployed.. member of the public, yeah, yeah, yeah now

Look who's unemployed now
Look who's unemployed now
(You gotta) Look who's unemployed now
Look who's unemployed
Look who's unemployed now
Look who's unemployed now
Look who's unemployed now
Look who's unemployed now
Look who's unemployed now
(You gotta) Look who's unemployed now
(I said) Look who's unemployed now..
Look who's unemployed
