From Wikipedia, 'Lists of British Words not widely used in the United States':
bedsit (or bedsitter)

one-room apartment that serves as a bedroom and a living room

-----------------------------

Hence, a bedsitter person (people) would be a poor working class stiff, stuck in life's rut. Fits the context of the poem.

At least it's not bedwetter people!

Yeah, I used to listen to that too.

Correct. Its a common word over here.

A bedsit is a one roomed flat. Bedroom/sitting room

Heh, he-he, heh... He said LP.

I still have a stack of vinyl under the music system in the family room, but every time I break one out for a listen I wonder how the heck I used to think they sounded so great.

Ok, this is cool, and it's cracking me up. I remember wondering in high school what that word was. Log on to a motorcycle forum, and the mystery is suddenly solved.

feejer, we call that a studio apartment over here.

We used to have a 'studio couch' when I was a kid, basically it folded flat to form a double bed. I never found anyone living in it though!
