Lyrics

Pay The Rent

Turn down the gas and try to ration
Do the maths and cut back fashion
There's no cheaper funeral than direct cremation
A ham of truth from the men of Kent
But how we gonna pay the rent?
How we gonna pay the rent?
Soft RIP funk was playing
In the over-priced grocery store
This band exists to sell beverage
While the venue tries to make a dent

Turn down the gas
Turn down the gas
Turn down the gas
Turn down the gas
How we gonna pay the rent?
How we gonna pay the rent?
How we gonna pay the rent?
How we gonna pay the rent?
He wore a cap that says make life boring
Had to go out for dismal foraging

As deliveries seem grotesque
Now it's time to erect that tent
Now it's time to erect that tent
Now it's time to erect that tent
How we gonna pay the rent?
How we gonna pay the rent?
How we gonna pay the rent?
How we gonna pay the rent?
