"The Precariat" lyrics

Made it out to another day
On a faint hope clause, at a moral loss
Nausea bitch, drag my fist through mud
Don't you think that I know by now?
When the work dries up in the cult of self
I'll be hollowed out
No one else to trust

They don't make 'em like they used to
They don't
They don't make 'em like they used to
They don't

Made a refuge of your room
I would waste myself in defence of you
It's a vulture state, and it's stacked on us
My love won't change it, it's not enough
Totems on your nightstand
Will outlast me and the dollar
And you'll have to find another
Friend to talk you through the end

We can't make it like we used to
We can't
We can't make it like we used to
We can't

Age of Aquarius, save the precariat
Something has got to give
Age of Aquarius, save the precariat
Save the precariat

We can't make it like we used to
We can't make it like we used to
We can't make it like we used to
We can't make it like we used to
We can't

Can't wait to be back in an American city
And pay with American money
And listen to Vampire Weekend
Can't wait to live in an American city
Where people are American funny
And I have all my American friends
Can't wait to sleep in an American city
Where the feeling is heavy
Like it might collapse
I used to believe in American cities
Before I left

We can't
We can't make it like we used to
We can't make it
We can't make it like we used to
We can't make it like we used to
We can't make it like we used to
We can't make it like we used to
We can't make it like we used to
We can't make it like we used to
We can't make it like we used to
Like we used to
