They told I needed a ticket to life

Something to prove that I was not useless

A measure of proof was what I'd need

If was to get ahead

But I just couldn't seem to get ahead

Or be polite in the pyramid I hate

Now I rather be a child than a cog in a faceless machine

(Hopeless, jobless, worthless useless)

(Hopeless, jobless, worthless useless)

(Hopeless, jobless, worthless useless)

I'm hopeless, I'm jobless and a failure too

I'm going absolutely nowhere

And I'm no good for nothing

I'm voluntary outcast from the human race

They told me that I'm lazy and I let my country down

A waste of space, an ugly face

A bludger, sponge, a good for nothing

They told me I should be working, making, doing, buying, spending, hunting, working, wanting, working, stressing

The list goes on and on and on

In one ear and out the other

Fucked up again

(Hopeless, jobless, worthless useless)

(Hopeless, jobless, worthless useless)

(Hopeless, jobless, worthless useless)

I'm hopeless, I'm jobless and I'm lazy too

I'm going absolutely nowhere

And I'm no good for nothing

I'm a voluntary outcast from the human race

I'm useless

I don't be wanna be a useful part of economic growth

For we don't live in a world of infinite supply

The more I find I think I know

The more I find I don't

To be at peace with myself is work enough itself

Propped up with riches and toys to work a play

All earnt through working hard almost everyday

All you're really doing is using up supplies

Saving for a day that you'll destroy anyway

I'm hopeless, I'm jobless and I'm lazy too

I'm going absolutely nowhere

And I'm no good for nothing

I'm a voluntary outcast from the human race

I'm useless

(No good for nothing)
