Blame it on the strike (ooh strike)
Blame it on the strike (ooh strike strike)
Blame it on the strike (ooh strike)
Blame it on the strike (ooh strike strike)
Well you know they do it every time I want to take a shower
Now I have to drive to work because we give 'em too much power
The trains are stopped, the busses off, the lights don't even go
And I'm gonna ring 'em up and tell 'em on the radio…
Chorus:
Blame it on the strike (ooh strike)
Blame it on the strike (ooh strike strike)
Blame it on the strike not the stroke of a pen (ooh strike)
Blame it on the strike (ooh strike strike)
Blame it on the innocent women and men (ooh strike)
Going on strike, well it'll happen to you
what happens to them (ooh strike)
what happens to them (ooh strike strike)
There's a young executive sitting at his desk
And I know he's making twice as much as I do at my best
He's writing out a contract that'll cut out half his debt
It's a contract out on my life and the price is on my head…
(rept Chorus)
Bridge:
I've got my homebrew philosophy
Why the country's in a mess (it's not because of me)
I don't follow details, they don't make any sense
And they don't make no difference to the inconvenience
(rept Chorus ad lib)
Blame it on the, blame it on the, blame it on the, blame it on the… etc… STRIKE!
