Notes
Dave Gahan told Uncle Sally*s magazine (translated from German):
I remember a B-side called "Work Hard", which mainly consisted of wood breaking. We ran around with a hammer and toolbox across the junkyards in East London and crashed everything we could find. Gareth Jones had a cassette recorder and a microphone, and so we came back into the studio with loud, strange sounds, which we would put in a sampler or on an analogue tape, and cut up again and again until a good rhythm came out of it.
Lyrics
Work Hard
You've got to work hard
You've got to work hard
If you want anything at all
Nothing comes easy
And that's a fact
Nothing comes easy
But a broken back
Nothing comes easy
It never will
Nothing comes easy
But a broken will
So work hard
