Lyrics

Eating fake cheese and waiting for retirement
Recycling bags and biking to my job again
Paying my taxes from a bank account
Then I look at your face and wanna scratch your eyes out
I look at your face and wanna scratch your eyes out

Watching the news and learning anti-racism
Help a friend move and taking all my vitamins
Raising a child in a self-defence class
I hear you and I hope you eat a bag of glass
I hear you and I hope you eat a bag of glass

I’m doing my best
Every single fresh soul sucking day
A human in late stage capitalism
I hope I don’t scream at work today

Get enough sleep to push back on the tyranny
Hitting the gym and trauma psychotherapy
You’re gagging on freedom while they tighten the locks
If you voted for this
Then you can shit in a box
