lyrics

Hollywoods are at it again
Dying through a hole in their heads
Moving mountains just to
Undo what you made them so they could go pay the rent
Wrapped up in buying my time and silence
Like your government
We used to run this alone
All I ever needed was you and two mobile phones
Now the root of all this evil's drove my life into the ground
Yeah I'm working splits tomorrow
Guess I'll see you 'round
I'm still way too young to pretend alongside you
You're the man I'll become and I've come to despise you
I've worked way too hard to do this my whole damn life
It's time to get it right

Never been a better time than right now
Never been a better time than right now
Turn the nine to five up and turn your life down
You should have stayed in bed

Zombied at the counter of your shitty nine to five
I guess the phrasing should be frantic
To reflect your state of mind
It's just self-indulgent therapy
With lungs not what they used to be
But in the end it's worth it just to know that you're alive
When you started all you ever wanted was that suit and tie
Now you're brushing up on nihilism just to get you by
So work or drink until your heart stops
It's deadlines and alarm clocks
Until you either break the mould
Or smoke until you die
I'm still way too young to pretend alongside you
You're the man I'll become and I've come to despise you
I've worked way too hard to do this my whole damn life
It's time to get it right

Never been a better time than right now
Never been a better time than right now
Turn the nine to five up and turn your life down
You should have stayed in bed
Never been a better time than right now
Never been a better time than right now
Turn the nine to five up and turn your life down
I wish that I was dead

It's time to get it right
Never been a better time than right now
Never been a better time than right now
Turn the nine to five up and turn your life down
You should have stayed in bed
Never been a better time than right now
Never been a better time than right now
Turn the nine to five up and turn your life down
I wish that I was dead
