My friends and I are gonna change the world And spend our time creating shiny pearls Just gotta get my foot out of this bear trap, gotta get my bones on my side Gotta do this guy some favours for the right, the right not to decide And there is no trusting hand When what you must ain't what you can I bought an urn, it's tightroped on the sill I'm automatic writing my last will And if I'll be six feet deep, hey, I'll shell out for six feet wide Cause you cannot be a cheapskate on the hole, the hole in which you'll die And I find I'm 75 And my pension's dry What a price to pay! And we my darling, we don't stand a chance So fire away! Don't wanna see you sing, just hear you dance And I hear a buzz! It's not my fault, but oh how I wish it was And the heart of making ends meet is just to retire But it's hard to take a breath in a house on fire And when times are at their hardest we put a price on our hearts Cause everyone's an artist spending most of their waking life not making fucking art Cause we simply can't Not when the car won't start And I can't just sit and wait for you, but what else could I do? The spark will dissipate before you finish the unfurling of the fuse Because you never really choose How you'll make the news What a price to pay! And we my darling, we don't stand a chance So fire away! Don't wanna see you sing, just hear you dance And I hear a buzz! It's not my fault, but oh how I wish it was OH GOD What a price to pay! Patience, darling, we were born to queue All night and day! Doomed to tread the path the dead men drew And fear the bends! A job at the morgue will meet my ends
