BUNGALOWS LYRICS
Trademark
It struck me like
slow lightning
an idle hunger left unfed
Like a bad dream in a
soft bed
leaves a certain kind of dread
So I’ve chosen exile of a sort
noon runs into twilight this far north
You could say I’m grateful, to be alive
I’ve been selling out since ‘95
This version of
production
seems to just reward the worst
No perks left
or real work left so
now we’re all entrepreneurs
There’s a lonely kind of branded troll
showing off the trademark on his soul
deny the influencers empty cheer
Who can pull the most creative sneer
You wanna change the deal
we’re much more than this
but when we should be steel
we are contortionists
You’re a tourist now in your own home
stumbling frantically from pose to pose
So there’s a terror when we’re face to face
bet you wish you could just scroll away but
Stop grifting and
shapeshifting it
gets you less than you can know
Don’t panic or
shake hands there’s just
so much left to overthrow
You wanna change the deal
we’re so much more than this
but when we should be steel
we are contortionists
