When the day shift is over  
There'll be fear in the pipeline tonight  
All the prisoners are restless  
Locked up from dusk to daylight  
  
Well how can you blame them?  
I get pretty close myself sometimes?  
I know the score, I know the feeling  
Isolation for canteen crimes  
  
Still I gotta keep my shirt on  
Gotta wait for the nerves to unwind  
I gotta get control again  
Gotta let the blood boil in my mind  
  
But you don't take it out on your children  
Honey I won't take my work home tonight  
On the weekend I'm gonna have a good one  
'Cos I'll be back in the hole in the morning light  
  
When the schoolboy's witch hunt is over  
He's gonna tell us that the system is wrong  
But I'll still be working in the cold Coburg air  
We've had it too easy for too long  
  
I'm on my way home now  
To face up to the rest of my life  
Hot water and a home cooked meal  
And send kind regards to my wife  
  
But you don't take it out on your children  
Honey I won't take my work home tonight  
On the weekend I'm gonna have a good one  
'Cos I'll be back in the hole in the morning light
