Lyrics Government Center - Jonathan Richman , The Modern Lovers

Well, we've got a lot, a lot, a lot of hard work today
We've got to rock at the government centre
And make the secretaries feel better
When they put those stamps on the ledgers

And they got a lot, a lot, a lot of great desks and chairs
Uh-huh, at the government centre
We gotta make the secretaries feel better
When they put those stamps on all those letters

We've got to rock-a, rock-a, rock-a non-stop tonight
Uh-huh, at the government centre
Make the secretaries feel better
When they put the stamps on the ledgers

Won't stop until we see secretaries smile
We've got to see some office boys there jumpin' for joy
Tell old Mr. Ahern, "calm down a while,
You know that's the only way the centre is ever gonna get better"

So, let's rock-a, rock-a, rock-a non-stop tonight
Uh-huh, at the government centre
Make the secretaries feel better
When they put the stamps on the letters

You gotta make them feel better, oh look out
Make them feel better
