dessa - rome lyrics

take your fronts out
if you’re talking to me
no vip says vip
i’ve known powerful women
and beautiful men
and none of them call in for bottle service
settle down and settle in
mind your manners
make a friend, motherf+cker
where you been?
how you living?
have a drink
it’s cash only but the staff knows me
tell ’em it’s the girl in the back
tab’s open

[chorus]
when in rome
you live by roman code
it used to be
if you don’t like it
you could leave
but then thе walls came down
and so it’s all rome now

you want a standing desk
you gеt a floating grave
they say pound of flesh
ah, but then it’s metric
wait, hold up
trying to get the glow up
hope the big coin flip before the code rusts
middle class
the poor man’s poor man
disappoint the kids, bringing home the store brand
whole life with a stone against your shoulder
trying to flip the symbol over
get it equal to or more than
and chekhov says, you got a gun, you gotta use it
guess they’re reading chekhov downtown in their cruisers
bang, catch the case
we all lose
make dixie look like khartoum
that lady justice ain’t blind yet
lens cap on the body cam
missed again, d+mn
make you wait while they run your name and
st. peter at the gate says
tuck your chain in
[chorus]
when in rome
you live by roman code
it used to be (it used to be)
if you don’t like it
you could leave
but then the walls came down
and so it’s all rome now

it was the golden age before the firewall blew
pictures pretty and the products all new
but then the data got bigger than the beta test
who’d’ve thought, after all
looks like the wire wore you
and i think beauty f+cks us up
it’s like sugar in the natural world
we never get this much
so the appetite is bottomless
call maybelline anonymous
makes narcissists of all of us
we never get enough
and its two bit feminism
only says you’re better than some other b+tch
that’s digging the same ditch
one of us winning don’t fix the d+mn system
toes out, girls
back to second position
the natural order is value neutral
culture institutes a few virtues
capital comes and brings more confusion
but do anything long enough and the body gets used to it
(used to it, to it, to it)
[chorus x2]
when in rome
you live by roman code
it used to be (it used to be)
if you don’t like it
you could leave
but then the walls came down
and so it’s all rome now

here in rome
when in rome
oh, leave
here in rome
when in rome
