lyrics

It gets to the point
Where you can’t find a joint
Where the everyday choice
Doesn’t give you a voice
What once seemed like a job for life
Is precarious work you just don’t like

Settle down, take it down
Share the latest Marie Kondo memes
Nostalgic for your emo past
But you got to sleep with kitchen dreams
We once said there’s no class system
Everybody’s middle class these days
Who knew it was a levelling down
Where the rich get richer and everyone pays

You know things are getting bad
When you make the middle class angry and sad
You know things are getting bad
When you make the middle class angry and sad

Amazon Prime, HBO, Netflix
Lana del Ray, Lorde, Taylor Swift
Who’d get down at the modern dance
Ed Sheeran coasters and a house in France
Mixing up the rich and poor
One step away from life’s manure
Opioids, Pornhub, easy drugs
Home Gyms and Persian Rugs
How can you afford your service charge
Deliveroo tapas – time to go large

You know things are getting bad
When you make the middle class angry and sad
You know things are getting bad
When you make the middle class angry and sad
