When the day shift is over
There`ll be fear in the pipeline tonight
All the prisoners are restless
Locked up from dusk to daylight
Well how can you blame them?
I get pretty close myself sometimes
I know the score, I know the feeling
Isolation for canteen crimes
Still I gotta keep my shirt on
Gotta wait for the nerves to unwind
I gotta get control again
Gotta let the blood boil in my mind
But you don`t take it out on your children
Honey I won`t take my work home tonight
On the weekend I`m gonna have a good one
`Cos I`ll be back in the hole in the morning light
When the schoolboy`s witch hunt is over
He`s gonna tell us that the system is wrong
But I`ll still be working in the cold Coburg air
We`ve had it too easy for too long
I`m on my way home now
To face up to the rest of my life
Hot water and a home cooked meal
And send kind regards to my wife
But you don`t take it out on your children
Honey I won`t take my work home tonight
On the weekend I`m gonna have a good one
`Cos I`ll be back in the hole in the morning light
