lyrics

The so-called adult in the room is just a Scalper
Scalper

The market has spoken and your lives are forfeit

I don’t care how hard you think you’ve worked
That is some nerve
To think you deserve
To capture every place that we could call a home
Hold it to ransom
And call it freedom

What value could you ever offer me
When the choice to engage with you is not voluntary?
Our survival it is fuelled by resentment
You probably think I’m singing about the government…

This is
The winter of our non-consent
This is
The generation that lives to rent
Suck up
All the coins we scrape together
The so-called adult in the room is just a scalper
Scalper

Rawr

Tell me about your risk
Everything you do is passive
Your only liability is to join us again in drudgery
Tell me about your risk
Everything you do is passive
If you could you’d charge a fee
For the very fucking air we breathe


The market has spoken and your lives are forfeit

I know you’ve not done a lick of work
When you possess
The roof over our heads
We will never have a place that we can call our own
You’re gouging the price
Your heart is like ice

Rawr
Your investment is our cage it’s clear to see
Desperation leads to the point that we

Don’t pay
This time we say enough is enough
Don’t pay
Don’t think you want to call this bluff
You are
A parasite that creates nothing
You are
A disease that’s propagating
Scalper
Scalper
Scalper

The market has spoken and your lives are forfeit
