[00:26.80]Looking for the working man's cafe
[00:29.80]In the shopping centre of the town
[00:32.86]Looking for somewhere to fit in
[00:35.61]In among the retail outlets
[00:39.10]Bought a pair of new designer pants
[00:42.02]Where the fruit and veg man used to stand
[00:45.12]I always used to see him there
[00:48.21]Selling old apples and pears
[00:51.31]Chatting up the pretty girls
[00:53.54]With knocked off goods in the van
[00:56.85]Don't you know he was a working man
[01:02.92]Long ago he was a working man
[01:08.68]And we sat and spent the time of day
[01:13.44]As the working man's cafe
[01:16.13]Everything around me seems unreal
[01:18.94]Everywhere I go it looks and feels like America
[01:28.20]We've really come a long way down this road
[01:31.23]Improving our surroundings as we go
[01:34.52]Changing our roots and culture
[01:37.23]But don't you know
[01:39.79]Long ago there was a working man
[01:45.77]Don't you know we were all working men
[01:51.90]And we'd sat and spent the time of day
[01:56.48]Atthe working man's cafe
[02:02.32]I thought I knew you then
[02:04.05]But will I know you now
[02:07.55]There's gotta be a place for us to meet
[02:10.16]I'll call you when I've found it
[02:14.30]I only hope that life has made us
[02:16.79]A little more grounded
[02:18.89]Hey man I see you now
[02:21.46]Oh oh we were all working men (working men)
[02:30.60]And here we are at the working man's cafe
[02:35.47]Ha ha ha ha ha
[02:38.18]Ha ha ha ha ha
[02:41.26]Ha ha ha ha ha
[02:44.33]Ha ha ha ha ha
[02:48.20]It's really good to see us come so far
[02:51.29]But haven't we forgotten who we are
[02:54.20]Taking out a larger loan
[02:57.66]Equity relief and mortgages
[03:00.39]Now we spend the time of day
[03:03.48]Online at the internet cafe
[03:06.70]And if you forget my face
[03:09.06]In case you've forgotten just who I am
[03:12.65]I'm the kid with the greasy spoon
[03:15.20]Firmly held in my hand
[03:18.27]Don't you know he was a working man
[03:24.34]Long ago we were all working(walking men)
[03:31.13]And we sat and spent the time of day
[03:34.90]At the working man's cafe
[03:37.96]Du du du du du
[03:39.67]Du du du du du
[03:42.81]Du du du du du
