Integrated Course Book 4 Unit 3 Listen to the recording two or three times and then think over the following questions: 1. Why do some people find it hard to find a job?2. What do you think of the way the wife behaves in the song? 3. How does the husband feel about his wifes behavior?4. What about the husband? Do you think he is really trying to get a job? The song you are about to hear was written by one of a group of four singers known as the Silhouettes. He wrote the song back in the 1950s, shortly after leaving the army. It is easy to imagine that it may well reflect his own experience of suddenly finding himself having to look for a job. If the song is anything to go by, his wife was largely unsympathetic, suspecting him of laziness and not trying hard enough. Every morning she would get him out of bed, telling him to get a job; every breakfast she would throw the paper down in front of him, pointing out the jobs he could apply for. And when he got home at the end of the day without having had any success she would accuse him of lying about his job hunting, suspecting, no doubt, that he had not bothered to try. Do you think he did? What does it sound like to you?
