It’s ever so glamorous, a life on the road
Avoiding speed cameras and hauling wide loads
Kings of the motorway, we hold them so dear
There’s now a better way to grow your career
Retrain, retrain
Think of the things you can do with your brain
The supply chain we wrecked it, so help us fix Brexit
And retrain as an HGV driver
One hand on a Ginsters, one hand on a wheel
Stinking of diesel, it’s rich with appeal
Towing tomatoes from Tyneside to Tewksbury
Wouldn't it be better if we bought locally?
Retrain, retrain
Think of the things you can do with your brain
We’re putting out feelers to steer 18-wheelers
So retrain as an HGV driver
HGV stands for Hawfully Great Variety
HGV stands for Hope I Get Your Vote
HGV stands for Horrifically Gigantic Vole
And HGV stands for panic not plans
and it’s creeping right into my soul
“This supply chain business is very stressful, isn’t it. I suppose there are other jobs I could think about... Like...”
Think of poor Fatima, she trained as a dancer
Ballet don’t pay the bills, but we have the answer
Defund the humanities, find the coder inside her
Why be an artist? You could be in cyber
Retrain, retrain
Think of the things you can do with your brain
Coding is more use than prancing in tutus
So retrain from ballet to cyber
