Expensive People

from Human Initiation by Strange Chan

/

lyrics

Pretty one

Harlequin

Charlatan

Glow of the sun punctuates your skin
Placates the grin on your face
But does not replace

The cold heart that lies in your ribcage

Movie star

Shiny car

Caviar

You’re all slaves to your fancy things
Blood diamond rings for the bride
Still doesn’t hide
The true price of pride’s ugly side 


Someday we’ll pay

If not in our lives

Maybe your kid’s

Think it’s safe to say

That in the world today

It pays to be well paid

So take all you can take
Because Carpe diem’s our way

Masochist

Starved artist

Cut his wrist

He’ll never be what he sees on T.V.
Because it’s all just a ruse
He missed all the clues
Now the blues got the best of him
