work won't love u back

you want to stay alive so you’ve got to make money
you’ve got to make money so you have to keep a job
you want to keep yr job because you’ve got to make money
so you give and you give and you give
we’re a family here and you wouldn’t want to disappoint yr family
would you? would you? would you?
take it back! yr time, yr boundaries
take it back! yr voice, yr space
whatever pieces you can claw away
we’re taught to be grateful
for the opportunity to make others richer
amazon, starbucks, the new york times
even giants fall
take it back! yr time, yr boundaries
take it back! yr voice, yr space
whatever pieces you can claw away
eight hours for work, eight hours for sleep
eight hours for what we fucking will
for loving for fighting for doing absolutely nothing
take it back! yr dignity, yr heart
amazon, starbucks, the new york times
even giants fall

once again the battlefields are our bodies
the pain is old but the knives are sharp
and primed from every corner
in christ we trust
all others pay
with their lives
over and over
in christ we trust
all others pay
with their lives
over and over
who said this was right
giving birth in a prison bed
who said this was right
shoved back in the closet
exhausted casualties of a culture war
we were drafted into
just let us fucking live
and make our own choices
state by state
they had a plan
well-funded
as always
state by state
they had a plan
well-funded
as always
who said this was right
giving birth in a prison bed
who said this was right
shoved back in the closet

i laid awake thinking about this dunk
it would be the best dunk in the world
so succinct and so funny
everyone would love it
i would go to bed the next night
secure in my feeling
that for once nobody could bring me down
hit send
right
hit send
right
hit send
right
i posted that photo while i was at the supermarket
just a funny-looking melon or whatever
didn’t expect it to take off
at least that’s what i’m telling the magazines
i’m developing a skincare line
that’s all coincidental
hit send
right
hit send
right
hit send
right
everywhere i go i carry you guys
they used to say like and subscribe
but i’m much more coy
you can’t be seen wanting it too much
fucking on the first date
we all know that’s the game

barefaced and proud
powerlifters and parler told em
you got nothing to worry about
it’s only the weak
and you’re a big strong man
with big strong friends
and the state at yr back
don’t it feel good
to back the blue
this city
raised a killer
to infect and to serve
only the god of property
can tell em what to do
bringers of the cruelest deaths
into this big strange world
with big strong lies
and the state at their backs
don’t it feel good
to back the blue
this city
raised a killer
his face above you
red and sweaty
a bloody baton in his hand
spittle on his eager mouth
he’s been waiting for this moment his whole life

eddie said you have to think of us as people
we are not defined by our sentences
humanity denied by the system at every turn
keep riding! keep riding! until the wheels fall off!
captive workforce makes so many things
they can’t use themselves
labor for nothing
jpay extortion
just to hear a word of love
now and again
keep riding! keep riding! until the wheels fall off!
for eddie, for stevie, for cece, for bresha
for everyone who’s been caged or is caged
for all who refuse the state’s brutality
we will not let it crush our hearts
a small thing can open up big worlds
a small thing can open up big worlds
a small thing

buckets down the hall
for when it rains or snows
half the kitchen roof
caved in from the ice
black mold blooms
from under the peeling paint
fell down the concrete steps
cause you couldn’t be bothered to salt
can’t get you on the phone
til i’m one day late with rent
can’t get you on the phone
til i’m one day late with rent
crack open a wall and there’s nothing but bugs
and the corpses of mice
wood rotted away
or chewed up by termites
heat hasn’t worked right for nearly two years
below zero and the snow comes in
can’t get you on the phone
til i’m one day late with rent
can’t get you on the phone
til i’m one day late with rent
can’t get you on the phone, phone, phone, phone
you might be better than m. fishman
but do you understand what a low bar that is?
a parasite sick on other people’s money
you set it so you never have to worry
i hope you sleep like shit for the rest of yr fucking life

i was sick
i am sick
and that’s the excuse for my exile
a shit in the punch bowl
a nail in the tire
an unwelcome ghost
sorry to remind you
everyone dies an ugly death
sooner or later
it all comes home
had to keep oiling
the engines of commerce
nearly a million dead
blood on the teeth
of the quacks and the podcast hosts
blood on the teeth
of the mayors and presidents
someday! you might look like me!
you might sour like me!
heaven fucking forfend
the worst case
a burr in the dog’s coat
sand in yr shorts
an unwelcome ghost
sorry to remind you
everyone dies an ugly death
sooner or later

so pretty you can't tell me no
on the cover art, the photoshoot
i'm an authentic icon
slender, good teeth
brands just love me
did it all with my own two hands
and a few good friends
a manager, a publicist, someone to book my tours
free shoes free jeans
brands just love me
my glossy image won't tell you the truth
i just wanna get paid
i don't want a day job
so like, i wrote this statement and it's really fucking important
i know we're totally anti-corporate and we're playing this huge festival but
i'm creating a space in the mainstream for all the oddballs and freaks
a godly mission
you will hear what i have to equivocate
all my excuses
i'm so fucking important

discomfort lives in my heart
always been with me
from the first damn day
no one can hate me more
than i hate myself
it’s much safer that way
i know the outcome and it’s fucked
i know the outcome and it’s fucked
nerves cracked with acid
always be ready for the worst
can’t knock you down
if you’re already on the floor
this is my best laid plan
i know the outcome and it’s fucked
i know the outcome and it’s fucked
what would it take to fix this
what would it take to feel secure
there’s comfort in the known
even if the known is poison
mix it up with a smile
i know the outcome and it’s fucked
i know the outcome and it’s fucked
you’re so brave, you tell it all now
lay it out in the brightest colors you’ve got
this is the lie, cracked against the boards
this is the lie, crashed into a sign
this is the lie, cracked against the boards
this is the lie, crashed into a sign

when yr politics
when yr politics are only reaction
yr world narrows
when yr politics are only reaction
yr world narrows to the size of yr mirror
sad to see you go this way
it’s terribly boring
but there’s money in it
the grievance grift
the shift of blame
a sense of superiority
but there’s money in it
the lifestyle grift
got nothing new to say
and a thousand ways to say it

i keep trying to talk to girls and i keep thinking about world war III
what else can you do in the heart of a dying empire
soot from all the blowback, sleeping in a landfill
whiling my days away til i die behind a bar
i’m fun at parties! a real hoot!
i keep trying to talk to girls and i keep thinking about surveillance
my tv ads know i’m sick but don’t know what diseases i’ve got
i’m fun at parties! a real hoot!
bodies under the highways, bodies under the plantations
bodies under the train tracks, bodies under the mines
i’m fun at parties! a real hoot!
i’m fun at parties! a real hoot!
