lyrics

We keep on actin' like there ain't no problem
When it's clear that we're chin deep in shit
We've got this lousy monetary system
And our debt is a bottomless pit

Pipelines

Hard times

Corporations have got us all very busy makin' useless products to sell
And thinking: "If you've got a brand new car you're doin' well"
The economy must be healthier than you
We're discretely being subdued by the Dollarama Dude

We're gonna sell our future to the present
They'll be conceived in a petri dish
Ignore the pleas of our First Nations
Make sure it's dry as you're shoving it in

Pipelines

Ignorance is bliss, and you'll still reap just what you sow
Will we be punished for our insolence? Are you sure you want to know?
Who's filtering your water? Who's growing all your food?
We're discretely being subdued by the Dollarama Dude

We keep on actin like there ain't no problem
When it's clear that we're chin deep in shit.
We've got this lousy monetary system
And our debt is a bottomless pit.

Pipelines

Hard times
