These Days from Interval by JESS SAADE

I don't need a brain to do half of the work I do
But being a millennial it's been forecast I'm screwed
My skills and qualifications put traditionalists to shame
But employers like to wipe their asses with my resume

It's just a dandy Wednesday
Til you're burned in effigy
These days are nothing short of strange
But that's just the territory
And you have to buy it

There's a trainwreck running for president
Thinks he'll make the country great
His campaign is as out of control as the fake tan on his face
He swings his racist shit with hateful uninspired spite
It will be much too late by the time these idiots realize

It's just a dandy Wednesday
Til you're burned in effigy
These days are nothing short of strange
But that's just the territory
And you have to buy it
It’s the territory
And you have to buy it

My sister wears too much makeup
Can she even drive there to get it
I told her not to pluck her brows so thin
Or else she might regret it
Her high school is laden with criminals, clowns in class, and it's dead-ended
It's amazing how resilient these kids are
In a time that's so pathetic

It's just a dandy Wednesday
Til you're burned in effigy
These days are nothing short of strange
But that's just the territory
And you have to like it
It’s the territory
And you have to like it

I only have
A hundred years
A hundred songs
A hundred fears
A thousand cares
A million tears
but I don't want
One billion regrets

It's just a dandy Wednesday
Til you're burned in effigy
These days are nothing short of strange
But that's just the territory
And you have to buy it
