lyrics

Got a closet full of moths,
Got a coat full of holes,
Got a funding cut coming down the pipe again.
Gotta hustle, man, I can't be getting down again.

Gotta struggle for attention
From the ministry
Of infrastructure, transport, comms and regional development.
Can't compete with copper wire and bitumen.


This place is run by Skeksis.
My people run on hoping anyway.
Chin up, but I really gotta tell ya,
Well I ain't dead yet, but I been better.


Got a town full of cowards crooks and gamblers
Getting silly off the wages
They were meant to be paying you.
They got a fine, don't worry, you'll be paying that too.

Got a generation traitor on the telly
Tryna tell me that by working smart,
I can be just like him.
Fifteen properties and twenty mil in private debt.



This place is run by Skeksis.
My people run on hoping anyway.
Chin up, but I really gotta tell ya,
Well I ain't dead yet, but I been better.

I been better.


Jeannie Cigarillo likes to sit at King and Collins
With a wink she calls the brokers over,
Just so they can hear her say,
Sharp suit, but the guillotine's sharper.
Sharp suit, but the guillotine's sharper.
