Victorian Work Song
In good old Queen Victoria's day Industrial revolution Meant bosses said 'Please, wee need more employees' We needed a solution
Who will climb our chimneys? Who will power our grids? Victorian families too desperately poor They'll let us employ their kids for
Work, terrible work (From very young ages) Up chimneys to clean (Paid pitiful wages) Work, terrible work (Pins make you work faster) If we grow too big (Get sacked by the master)
Now you're all in my employ Cleaning in the factory We're not very strong And the hours are long This work is unsatisfactory
Learn not to get caught in spokes Or trap our hands in gages To stop machines and get you out Will cost you a week's wages!

Now that I am short of cash I have to pick pockets Wallets from gentlemen And lady's lockets
Small enough to get away Hardly ever caught And if we are, we're kids you see To cry what we're taught Boo Hoo!
Work, terrible work (Dangerous and demeaning) No time to complain (Get back to your cleaning) Work, terrible work Guess what we are dreaming School, glorious school! Wonderful school! Marvelous school! Wish we went to school
