"Same Boat" lyrics

Tough luck for the poor man
Bootstraps won't pay the rent
Politicians pandering
Begging for a vote
It's a quick rage bait and switch
So the rich keep getting rich
God knows it's good for business
When we're at each other's throats

'Cause they don't care that we're yelling
If we're buying what they're selling
And they don't care if the world goes up in smoke
They'll ride off in their rockets
And they'll raise the price of hope
Meanwhile, you and I are sinking in the same boat

Such a shame we disagree
But your neighbor ain't the enemy
Careful not to fall too deep
Down the rabbit hole
'Cause the richest rely on the business of blame
And they want us to think we're not the same
So that we don't see they rigged the game
Against us all along

'Cause they don't care that they're lying
If the truth ain't testifying
They'll feed us fallacies until we choke
They'll keep lining their pockets
While they raise the price of hope
Meanwhile, you and I are sinking in the same boat
Sinking in the same boat

'Cause they don't care that we're yelling
If we're buying what they're selling
And they don't care if the world goes up in smoke
They'll ride off in their rockets
While they raise the price of hope
Meanwhile, you and I are sinking in the same boat
Meanwhile, you and I are sinking in the same boat
