Mommas in the factory
Daddy's in the mine
Thanks to Andrew Carnegie
The steel runs our lives
Trying to keep a job is like natural selection
Fighting for positions like the 84 election
Grover versus Blaine
In the gilded age
This is one example of political strain
Only way to power is bribery and graft
That's the only reason that Congress stays intact
Yeah it's pretty wild living in the age of industry
But the rights of common people is an ancient history
Gotta join a Labor union gotta have a voice
Because unrestrained enterprise has left me no choice
Oh it's such a shame
No one's listening to what we got to say
Oh it's such a shame
When you're living in, in the gilded age
Oh it's such a shame
No one cares about the people anyway
Oh it's such a shame
When you're living in, in the gilded age
I can't go to school
Cause my family's gotta eat
but what's the point of eating all this uninspected meat
What's the point of working if it's slowly killing me
What's the point of banking with all this dishonesty
Business tycoons just a bunch of clowns
Rockefeller going to turn the country upside down but
Who's going to fight for the rights of the poor cause
Democracy doesn't seem to work anymore so
Oh it's such a shame
No one's listening to what we got to say
Oh it's such a shame
When you're living in, in the gilded age
Oh it's such a shame
No one cares about the people anyway
Oh it's such a shame
When you're living in, in the gilded age
Because we're living in the gilded age
Because we're living in the gilded age
Because we're living in the gilded age
Because we're living in the gilded age
America is putting me in a cage
Because we're living in the gilded age
Politics is causing me so much rage
Because we're living in the gilded age
Rails to connect all of the madness
Labor of children giving me sadness
Corruption is found on the national stage
Because we're living in the gilded age
Forgettable presidents are such a bore
Hayes and Garfield and so much more
Nobody even remembers their names
Cause they were living in the gilded age
Wonder if I could get rich one day
Take advantage of the system someday
But for now I'll work and try to save money
Cause the cost of living isn't anything funny
But I know that everything will be alright
And I won't have to work on the assembly line
But I guess that I'll just leave it up to fate
Cause I know that I am living in the gilded age
