I’m working for a department, improving the status quo
We've got evidence-based advice but nobody wants to know
We've got the Lambton Quay Blues
We've got the Lambton Quay Blues
Everybody’s wearing black from their head to their shoes
We've got the Lambton Quay Blues
I came along The Terrace but everyone was gone
And then I saw the sign – it said Kirkcaldie’s sale is on!
We've got the Lambton Quay Blues
We've got the Lambton Quay Blues
When a word like “analytics” is being overused
You get the Lambton Quay Blues
Don’t want to hear about Courtenay Place
Don’t you mention Cuba Street
It’s hard to find a parking space
But Astoria is the place where we've got to meet
I bought a book from Parsons (they always have something weird) While I was out of office my job had disappeared
It gave me the Lambton Quay Blues
He's got the Lambton Quay Blues
When you’re working for the government and it drives you to booze
You've got the Lambton Quay Blues
And everybody’s wearing black from their head to their shoes
That’s called the Lambton Quay Blues
