"New Kids" lyrics

"New Kids"

"Get a grip, stick with it, man up
Stay the course, you'll grin and bear it too."
(Oohoohohooh ooh, yeah, oohoohohoo ooh)
Maybe could have mattered if you
Didn't pull that ladder up with you

Howdy-do! Meet the new kids
Sippin' droplets of your dripping faucet tap
(Oohoohohooh ooh, it's hot in here, oohoohohooh ooh)
Make sure to lock away the profit
That you promised line your pockets off our backs!
(Oohoohohooh ooh, oohoohohooh oohwah)

You can't buy a cure for the madness
So close your eyes picture, the rabbits on your feet
Let's hear it for the new kids:

I don't want you to save me
You're already too late
You've been obliviously aggregating!
You've had quite enough power consolidating
I don't need you to save me
Make way for the new kids, baby

Let's hear it for the new kids, baby

Bring the sea to a rolling boil
Gorging more and more for you and yours
(Oohoohohooh ooh, can't get enough, oohoohohooh ooh)
Go and put it on our tab and kick the can
Sit back, relax, we'll clean the floors

When we get up top, just watch
We'll chop this hot debacle of the block
(Oohoohohooh ooh)
Knock knock, tick tock, times up

You can't buy a cure for the madness
So close your eyes picture the rabbits
Let's hear it for the new kids, baby

I don't want you to save me
You're already too late
You've been obliviously aggregating!
You've had quite enough power consolidating, honey
I don't need you to save me
Make way for the new kids, baby

One, two, three, four
You declare a culture war
Five, six, seven, eight
Buy the trees and sell the shade

One, two, three, four
Hundredth high-rise, what's one more?
Five, six, seven, eight
Burn the future at the stake

No more houses, just rent
No more pensions, only debt
The jig is up, let's burn it down
The boom is done, your time is now

I don't want you to save me
You're already too late
You've been obliviously aggregating!
You've had quite enough power consolidating, honey
I don't need you to save me
Make way for the new kids, baby

Make way for the new kids

(One, two, three, four
You declare a culture war
Five, six, seven, eight
Buy the trees and sell the shade)
