Spend Your Life

(album: Music For An Accelerated Culture - 2008)

Listen ive got a bit of fiscal trouble
I dont want a sub but I need a few bob
In the last year ive seen my debt double
An I cant pay it off cos I aint got a job
It must have been the small print I mis-understood
The offer on the leaflet looked so good
I was poor, my mum was rusting
The man on the advert looked so trusting

Isnt it funny, how people spend there life away
Buy now pay later then consolidate your life
On day time telly, the trusted man brings peice of mind
And a life-line for those who dont work
And isnt it funny, how people live a life of debt
To one person, that they have never met
On the leaflet, just sign on the dotted line
Stay in the red till the day that your dead

Im tryna keep from debt and all I do is spend spend spend
I cant afford that much so why they let me lend again?
I cant bank on, a credit culture life of greed
I dont know how ill cope with mortgages and mouths to feed

Isnt it funny, how people spend there life away
Buy now pay later then consolidate your life
On day time telly, the trusted man brings peice of mind
And a life-line for those who dont work
And isnt it funny, how people live a life of debt
To one person, that they have never met
On the leaflet, just sign on the dotted line
Stay in the red till the day that your dead

Listen ive got a bit of fiscal trouble
I dont want a sub but I need a few bob
In the last year ive seen my debt double
An I cant pay it off cos I aint got a job
It must have been the small print I mis-understood
The offer on the leaflet looked so good
I was poor, my mum was rusting
The man on the advert looked so trusting

Isnt it so funny how we, people spend our lives away [repeated until end]

Isnt it funny, how people spend there life away
Buy now pay later then consolidate your life
On day time telly, the trusted man brings peice of mind
And a life-line for those who dont work
And isnt it funny, how people live a life of debt
To one person, that they have never met
On the leaflet, just sign on the dotted line
Stay in the red till the day that your dead
