lucy spraggan - cost of living lyrics
[verse 1]
they say there’s three inevitable things
birth, death and taxes
have they never put on fresh socks and stood where the wet patch is?
we’re all making a loss, no matter what the result of the match is
perfection isn’t a thing, even with all of the practice
they say “follow your dreams”, so i’m gonna stay in bed
the inflated price of getting up is a pint of milk and some eggs
they say “less is more”, and sometimes it really is
but the same doesn’t apply to people try’na feed their kids
[pre+chorus]
yes, you can have my netflix password
and yes, you can borrow my car
if you feel it, then say it
if you like it, then play it
but be exactly who you are
[chorus]
the cost of living, the cost of living
when you’re down and they’re still kicking
if they’re taking and not giving
the cost of living, the cost of living
if i could start from the beginning
i’d give it one more time with feeling
the cost of living
[verse 2]
i’ve been told that blood is thicker than water
as a response to my fears
i see my friends on the weekend, who lend a shoulder or an ear
and they’re always there when i need them
and i feel fully believed in
but i’ve not seen or heard from my dad in like three years
they say “work hard, and play hard”
i say do both in moderation
doctors and nurses don’t actually owe us anything
try to be better patients and try and have more patience
and realise the world isn’t sat there waiting for you
[pre+chorus]
yes, you can have my netflix password
and yes, you can borrow my car
if you did it, then own it
if you’re angry, then show it
but be exactly who you are
[chorus]
the cost of living, the cost of living
when you’re down and they’re still kicking
if they’re taking and not giving
the cost of living, the cost of living
if i could start from the beginning
i’d give it one more time with feeling
[bridge]
always look both ways when you cross the road
well, they got that one right
whoever made that up, you probably saved a lot of lives
looking directly at the sun is probably gonna hurt your eyes
and whoever worked that out, well that’s some pretty sound advice
[chorus]
the cost of living, the cost of living
when you’re down and they’re still kicking
if they’re taking and not giving
the cost of living, the cost of living
if i could start from the beginning
i’d give it one more time with feeling
the cost of living
