Lyrics
In The Red
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I heard you said that girls like me are better off red.
But you know what the say,
the free market closes at the
end of the day. Well I always
thought it's not what you're
given, it's what you got. THe
satus quo, it's killing me.
You want to see the lower
class bleed, but I gotta
believe there's a problem
with the system now, where
most of us have nothing. We'll keep the two-thirds you
allow. Check to check with
half of that to pay my rent.
Send the rest to interest on
my growing debt. I know what
I'm worth and it can't be
measured by the place of my
birth. The status quo it's
killing me. You get your gun,
you upper class blood. I
believe there's a problem
with the system now, where
most of us have nothing.
We'll keep the two-thirds
that you allow.
