We got knocked off the horse and we can't get back up.
|
We can try to change but we've still got our bills that we gotta pay.
|
And the payments stay the same no matter where you move and no matter how cheap the rent.
|
|
Stop screaming for a change.
|
Start screaming for a wage.
|
|
And the irony of plastic is when it starts replacing cash,
|
soon enough you have no cash and it gets replaced with debt
|
and all you're left with is past mistakes and the envelopes change color:
|
all dimly lit pastels, they go white, then yellow then pink.
|
It's like a fucking party to celebrate that you're fucked.
|
|
Electric flow and dirty clothes and students loans, oh god, ya gotta pay 'em.
|
Electric flow and student loans and dirty clothes, oh god, ya gotta clean 'em.
|
|
While you can't get a decent wage, I still can't find a job.
|
Yeah, my life just repeats the 2005 series of rejected applications
|
and me botching interviews and waiting for phone calls from a temp agency
|
that never calls at all. It's never easy it's always electric flow...
|
|
The attack, I'm feeling the attack, I'm feeling the attack
|
of basic social skills I know I know I know I know I lack
|
I'm hyper-cognizant of facts
|
I'm well aware that we are barely scraping by
|
My good intentions aren't enough to salvage that
|
Gimme 1 gimme 2 gimme 3 4 5
|
Gimme more per hour so I can afford to pay for food and gas
|
And bags to throw away the trash
|
Ya gotta throw away the trash.
|
|
It's hard to pay the bills when you can't work a forty hour week.
|
It's hard to interview when I am too depressed to even speak.
|
It's hard to have a blast when we spend all our spare time feeling weak
|
because we're thinking about that electric flow etc.
