   Sponge West/Go west (based on the song Go West by the Village People)

   Together we will go our DSS way, together we will sponge every single day.
   Together your hand in the till, together we will jack up and you forget to take your pill
   Together we will fly so high, together piss up all our social responsibilities goodbye
   Together we will start life new, sponging off the Blackpool locals this is what we’ll do.
   Go west, (of the m6), benefits are free there.
   Go west, live off the locals we dont fuckin care
   Go west to Blackpool to begin life new.
   Go west, have more kids on benefits this is what we will do
   Go west, dossing and drinking all the time
   Go west, we will do just fine.
   Go west where the skies are tangerine
   Go west, to the shed that looks so obscene
   Together we will sniff glue on the beach, together we will learn to leech.
   Together change our pace of life, together we wont work but sponge and skive
   I love special brew, I know you love DLA,together we will have more bastard kids to make it pay
   So that’s why I have no protest, when you say you want to go to sponge west.
   Go west, accomodation in North shore is free there
   Go west, lots of open sea air
   Go west to begin life new.
   Go west, doing nothing except sponging is what we will do
   Go west, dossing in the Blackpool sunshine .
   Go west, we will do just fine.
   Go west ,where our kids wont go to school
   Go west, to that benefits paradise the dreggs call Blackpool!
   SPONGE WEST……………………

   Sometimes you’re better off dead
   There’s needle in your arm when it should be pointing at your (knob) head
   You think you’re mad, possible ‘disabled’?
   Drink driving in your DLA scooter knocking down shoppers ,knocking down tables
   In a kibab in the West devonshire rd End of Blackpool town
   Call the police, there’s a crazed fang n can dosser lolling around
   Running down underground to a dive bar on talbot road
   Into a brothel in the West End of Blackpool town

   In the Blackpool town, a dregg end world
   The queenspark boys and Mereside end girls
   In a West End town, a dossers end world
   The queenspark boys and Mereside end girls

   Too many benefits, whispering voices
   Faces on JCP posters, too many choices
   If, when, why, what?
   How man kids have you got?
   Have you got it, do you get it, if so, how often?
   And which do you choose, a JSA or DLA option?
   (How much do you need?)
   In the Blackpool town, a dregg end world

   You’ve got a arse of glass or a heart of stone
   Just you wait ’til I get you home
   We’ve got a DLA future, we’ve got no NI number past
   Here today, built to last
   In every Shitty, in every nation
   From central drive to the south shore rail station
   (How far have you been?)
