    Lyrics
    They offered me the office, offered me the shop
    They said I'd better take anything they'd got
    Do you wanna make tea at the BBC?
    Do you wanna be, do you really wanna be a cop?
    Career opportunities, the ones that never knock
    Every job they offer you is to keep you out the dock
    Career opportunities, the ones that never knock
    I hate the army and I hate the RAF
    I don't wanna go fighting in the tropical heat
    I hate the civil service rules
    I won't open letter bombs for you
    Career opportunities, the ones that never knock
    Every job they offer you is to keep you out the dock
    Career opportunities, the ones that never knock
    Oi!
    Bus driver
    Ambulance man
    Ticket inspector, I don't understand
    They're gonna have to introduce conscription
    They're gonna have to take away my prescription
    If they wanna get me making toys
    If they wanna get me, well I got no choice
    Career opportunities, the ones that never knock
    Every job they offer you is to keep you out the dock
    Career opportunities, the ones that never knock
    Career, career
    Career, it ain't never gonna knock

    Joe Strummer wrote hundred of songs about the life in the UK in the 70's. He was in the right track, his music was perfect, he and the members of The Clash has changed my life and my point of view about this world.

    Strummer said elsewhere that it was powerful they played this song written in a squat in Shepherd’s Bush in 76 at Shea stadium six years later. Extra poignancy with Terry Chimes. So tight and clean.

    Was 14 and was there for two nights, one of the biggest memorable, and life changing events in my life, second to marrying my beautiful wife.. The Future is truly unwritten, how true. Write and make the best life you want, no matter what obstacles lay ahead. RIP Joe 🙏🙏

    Yes I am sure there are some overdubs but it's a wonderful reminder of how powerful their early anthems were. Given they had Terry Chimes with them again they purposely played more of their first album which he drummed on than they would have done in the 82 tour and he's really tight on this. Fantastic mid 70s lyrics from Mick Jones. 'Do you want to make tea at the BBC' is still a brilliant phrase.

    Brilliant. A little studio treatment one suspects to punch out the sound but of all their post Topper appearances this is a highlight mainly because Terry was theIr at the beginning. Shame there’s no footage of them in this period doing Janie Jones with him drumming.
