A song about the daily grind of working and the unnecessary politics that regularly permeates it; it makes no bones about this in its cynical lyrics and, at times, harsh chords. A sparse, dissonant opening gives way to a more laid-back but uneasy sounding verse with Guy taking the vocals over arpeggiated guitar chords and tightly locked bass and drums. The chorus is characterised by big power chords as Moss takes over vocal duties. The middle section of the song lures the listener into a false sense of relative ease with an almost jazz-like feel, complete with meandering bass and a mellow guitar sound. It's not long, however, before this theme reveals its true nature - a Sabbathesque riff complete with desperate vocals. After another power chord chorus, the outro offers little in the way of a happy ending as the dissonant opening theme returns with extra toppings and a double tempo.
