From the recording High Hopes
Lyrics
This is how your trap yourself in their game
Go to university acquire debts without the shame
Day after day
You’ll pay it all back in no time
At least that's what they tell you in the student loans line
Day after day
When you finally graduate
You’ll find out that your parents and your teachers didn’t know
Or they lied.
Now you have to burn the candle at both ends
Work a shitty job and go out drinking with your friends
Day after day
Believing someday the tables they will turn
Will you be climbing their ladders or watching their banks burn
Day after day
Your dreams will come true than pass you by
You’ll wake up on morning wondering
Why?
If you finish their race, you’ll be ignored and out of luck
Protesting for old age pensions til your dying breath
Day after day
Is this really how we let the world end
Eat or be eaten, stranger, foe or friend.
Day after day
