Rhythms of Class

Well, come on, y'all
It's time to get down to the one, two, three and four
Well, don't take long, bring your friends along
And we'll get them moves and more
Well, come on, y'all, it's time to get down to the one, two, three and four

Everybody knows when the door still says it's closed
That it opens out for lots of fuckin' others
The signs flip 'round on string
The lights beam down, that's it
Serving up double Quiché in the gutters
The hard bodies look at the competition as
It passes near the coffee shop's window
The bracket's up, it's thick like a good lipstick
It's the rhythms of class and it's here though

The mazes in the courtyard trimmed and dense
Spitting out purple haze from the hoses
The mazes in the courtyard laugh like fuck
At the people who don't win 'cause they noses
The channel carries hope, mobility or the rope
Carrying the new money from one area to another
You go from fry-ups on the street to yeezys on the green
Eating sourdough with eggs, yes, my brother

And oh, that's how they're living now in China
That's how they live wherever satellites can't bring these pictures home
And oh, that's how they're living now wherever
That's how they're living everywhere, we think it's even worse than home

It's nearly here, I think
Between rich, between the stink
As the gap disappears in the papers
The scene is set like cheese, but the Gulf Stream doesn't breeze
So the cheese whiffs like a tiny tear, no takers

We make it feel tough with the walk and a bit of rough
And the disregard for any painful reason
I'm dim like a switch, and McDonald's stinks of Lynx
With that little tit who thinks he's here for women

And oh, that's how they're living now in China
That's how they live wherever satellites can't bring these pictures home
And oh, that's how they're living now wherever
That's how they're living everywhere, we think it's even worse than home

Slender, swapped coke nights for coke light
Bender SPS that's slim
Positive and successful, mission laid not stressful
Always a low light for the dim
Slender, swapped coke nights for coke light
Bender SPS that's slim
Positive and successful, mission laid not stressful
Always a low light for the dim

Slender, swapped coke nights for coke light
Bender SPS that's slim
Positive and successful, mission laid not stressful
Always a low light for the dim
Slender, swapped coke nights for coke light
Bender SPS that's slim
Positive and successful, mission laid not stressful
Always a low light for the dim

And oh, that's how they're living now in China
That's how they live wherever satellites can't bring these pictures home
And oh, that's how they're living now wherever
That's how they're living everywhere, we think it's even worse than home
