day in the life - amity lyrics

money makes the world go round so they tax us/
and use the cash to keep the earth spinning on its axis/
the constant flow stops the globe from turning backwards/
we tap into the root of all evil for extraction/
itching from the withdrawal symptoms/
‘addicted to a bit more’ syndrome/
every bank teller has a pitchfork with them/
and every kid wants twenty gifts for christmas/
landlords l!ck their lips when i hand them rent/
you mean i went to uni only to be 50 grand in debt?
man, i sweat, bleed and cry for the man and yet/
he still bleeds me dry from his private caravan and jet/
we yawn in thе morning and sigh at night/
we’re always bored and unsatisfiеd with life/
sell your soul, add to the toll ‘til the price is right/
but it’s going up and up ‘til we’re all high as kites

it feels so wrong but i’m making it right/
saving to buy but i’m paying the price/
all along i’ve been just wasting my time/
saying “i’m fine, it’s just another day in the life”/
i don’t belong here, i’m escaping tonight/
i’m waving goodbye and i’ll take your advice/
sing this song in the queue, waiting in line/
take a number, it’s just another day in the life
slaving for the boss, another day, another dollar/
of blue*collar work for a pay so i can prosper/
to save for a holiday away from the job i hate/
so make another offer coming straight out of my pocket/
how many more early mornings and late nights/
do i have to slave for before i get a pay rise?
they say ‘hang tight’, i’m dangling from a great height/
i don’t suffer stage fright but shopping is a cage dive/
man, it takes time but the media makes vegetables/
out of us all, we need something meatier/
more substance in the food for thought/
they force*feed us on the tv, believe me, we need sustenance/
tell me to buy all this sh*t i don’t need/
but i want it ‘cause he’s got it and if i don’t, he/
will be better than me with fresh kicks on both feet/
it’s so cheap comparing us on things we won’t keep

it feels so wrong but i’m making it right/
saving to buy but i’m paying the price/
all along i’ve been just wasting my time/
saying “i’m fine, it’s just another day in the life”/
i don’t belong here, i’m escaping tonight/
i’m waving goodbye and i’ll take your advice/
sing this song in the queue, waiting in line/
take a number, it’s just another day in the life
trade your day job for a daydream/
‘cause you and me play on all the same teams/
you can choose to stay on every pay week/
or just get laid off, what do they seek?
clocking on and off, a job, a boss/
and running at a constant loss is not/
quite what i had in mind for my life/
but i’ve gotta be on the grind to get by/
tie the knot, buy a house, have a couple of kids/
make enough money to leave at least one of them rich/
how does what you have determine who somebody is?
f*ck all that sh*t, i’m enough as it is/
we’re all taught that we should have a happy marriage and a mortgage/
before you end up with heavy baggage in the morgue but/
if you spend your whole life trying to carry it then all/
you’re left with at the end of the day is your back against the wall
