Look at those builders - that's the way to do it
Renovating houses in Brunswick East
Beats rockin' - I should get into it
Money for working and your van for free
Those guys aren't hip, never went to uni
It must be easy to be dumb
Maybe get a blister on your little finger
Maybe get a blister on your thumb
We've got to conduct telephone surveys
Wash dishes, part-time data-entry
We've got to pay our last tour off
We got to be at sound check by three
See that bogan with the ladder and the toolkit?
Triple M blaring out of his car
That bogan rents us our practice room
That bogan he's a millionaire
We've got to conduct telephone surveys
Hydroponic delivery
We got to pay our credit cards off
We got to warehouse these DVDs
I should have learned to put up houses
I should have wagged it at rock'n'roll high
They get a paycheck the size of my tour grant
They get it every month until they die
They own McMansions in the outer suburbs
I rent a bedroom in Brunswick East
You can't download repairs to your plumbing
Their customers aren't on a free list
We catch the 8am tram to the warehouse
Work all day moving other bands' CDs
We got to find a mate's car to borrow
We got to lug our amps in by three
