W.P.A.

Now wake up boys, get out on the rock

It ain't daybreak but it's 4 O'clock

Oh, no, no, no, pops, you know that ain't the play

What you talkin' 'bout, it's the W.P.A.

The W.P.A., the W.P.A.

Sleep while you work, while you rest, while you play

Lean on your shovel to pass the time away

'T ain't what you do, you can die for your pay

The W.P.A., the W.P.A., the W.P.A.

Now don't be a fool working hard is passé

You'll stand from five to six hours a day

Sit down and choke while you smoke, it's okay, the W.P.A.

I'm so tired, I don't know what to do

Can't get fired, so I'll take my rest until my work is through

The W.P.A., the W.P.A.

Don't mind the boss if he's cross when you're gay

He'll get a pink slip next month anyway

Three little letters than make life okay, the W.P.A.
