Do you think, everything, everyone, is going mental,
It seems to me that it’s spiraling
Outta control
And it’s inevitable,
Now don’t you think,
This time is yours, this time is mine,
It’s temperamental,
It seems to me, we’re on all fours,
Crawling on our knees,
Someone help us please
Oh Jesus Christ almighty,
Do I feel alright? No not slightly,
I wanna get a flat I know I can’t afford it,
It’s just the bureaucrats
Who won’t give me a mortgage,
Well it’s very funny cos I got your f#cking money,
And I’m never gonna get it
Just because of my bad credit
Oh well I guess I mustn’t grumble,
I suppose that’s just the way the cookie crumbles.
Oh yes, I’m fine,
Everything’s just wonderful,
I’m having the time of my life.
Don’t you want something else,
Something new, than what we’ve got here,
And don’t you feel it’s all the same,
Some sick game and it’s so insincere,
I wish I could change the ways of the world,
Make it a nice place
Until that day, I guess we stay,
Doing what we do
Screwing who we screw
Why can’t I sleep at night,
Don’t say it’s gonna be alright,
I wanna be able to eat spaghetti bolognaise,
And not feel bad about it for days and days and days.
In the magazines they talk about weight loss,
If I buy those jeans
I can look like Kate Moss,
Oh no it’s not the life I chose,
But I guess that’s the way that things go.
Oh Jesus Christ almighty,
Do I feel alright? No not slightly,
I wanna get a flat I know I can’t afford it,
It’s just the bureaucrats
Who won’t give me a mortgage,
Well it’s very funny cos I got your f#cking money,
And I’m never gonna get it
Just because of my bad credit
Oh well I guess I mustn’t grumble,
I suppose that’s just the way the cookie crumbles.
