[verse 1]
we stood low, by the limestone at the turning of the road
we took shelter, rain was the norm
i placed my arm round to keep your body warm
threw a hand out to leave in no doubt to commuters and the p-ssers-by
below the college shirt and shoe polish
electric lines ran overhead

[verse 2]
arrived at home to an empty room
where i’d sit down and i’d waste the day away
in all the silence i didn’t understand
when i leave will the sound remain the same

[chorus]
they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig you ‘til you’re worn out, with a face like stone
they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig you ‘til you’re worn out, with a face like stone

[verse 3]
and through the afternoon, twisted metal on a cathode silver screen
another scratched cd, breathe it, sleeve it, insert and start again

[chorus]
they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig you ‘til you’re worn out, with a face like stone
they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig, they’ll dig you ‘til you’re worn out, with a face like stone

[bridge]
and soon we’re on the rise
hold fire ‘til you see the whites of their eyes
and soon we’re on the rise
hold fire ‘til you see the whites of their eyes

[outro]
and soon they’d all arrive
as the teacher starts asking ‘bout our weekly p-ssions
end of his tether he’d make a threat
and call on his army, then bend and disarm me
and i wonder, was it all worthwhile
though changes were needed, expressions had fleeted
back to another fraught long day
the diggin’ll be repeated in your head
