The Business: Minding Their Own
Garry Bushell, Sounds, 27 February 1982
'The winter of discontent is nearing/Thatcher's got trouble with her hearing/The voices of millions are going unheard/I'd try to laugh if it wasn't so absurd/This generation won't keep quiet/WORK, WORK, WORK...OR RIOT!
('Work Or Riot')
