legss - hollywood lyrics

oh, the life of a hack
you do the body’s worth
what would i do without you? you’re my foil
i see the boys of spring til summer
turn up and intern and burn up in winter

the rates of a slate
you say it’s sorry work
what could i lift without it? it’s so funny
some say that ten pence for a word
at best’s not a dower but it’s people per hour
oh, the rake’s at the gates
you say my folly’s ripe
what with my reason all rotted in meaning?
and i take it all dearly, and drunk as a rule
and i laugh with the lacks but i’ll always be a hack

all my friends, their lovers
invoice, misquote their struggle
and we paint by numbers
oh, thе canon, canon, canon, canon, canon, canon, canon, canon, canon
pretend we’rе all in trouble
us hacks

oh, the rates of a slate
the say it’s sorry work
i tell my mum’s friends i work in hollywood
they say it shows, all those tv dinners
i want tv finished
the life of a hack
we know that modern life isn’t just rubbish
it’s sometimes less than colorful
children of the crash, children of the crash
oh, we must hack, hack, hack

go ask your local bookseller where all their books have gone
i’ve got a million pages on my floor
i’ve got too many lines in this verse
somebody get me a field recording of those ice caps melting
pukka teas just brought out a new range of
“drink me and feel like somebody entirely different” teas
spiral and warp, spiral and warp
and again, spiral and warp, spiral and warp
there’s a train leaving in five minutes mister, be under it
