In the 99 |
Collide with faces veiled in paper |
Reading line by line the pain there |
But for the grace of code and capital |
We’d cry out side by side |
So why am I the one to praise? |
Calculate the Ponzi pension to avoid |
Unintended consequences of a choice |
Now am I so confident I am the one |
Earning every pretty sum and deserving every toy |
Am I selling broken bonds or innovation? |
Someone’s yelling get a job out of a Lincoln |
But the human microphone will find a voice |
And a change is gonna come, said the signal |
To the — |
Remind me in my western chamber |
What this plan’s designed to save here |
I haven’t come to say I’m sorry |
But I swear I’m on your side |
Oh I am not the one who preys |
Betting on the best semesters you can buy |
Digging out of debt, sequestered, unemployed |
Underwater empty nesters in a slum |
Television for the bums, helicopter for the boys |
Marketplace of multi-culti competition |
Building out the fossil fracking operation |
Careful of a bird blacker than a swan |
'cause a change is gonna come, said the signal |
To the noise |
Were you never in the 99? |
You are ever in the 99 |
We are ever in the 99 |
We are ever in the 99 |
Am I the one to praise? |
Collide with faces veiled in paper |
Reading line by line the pain there |
I haven’t come to say I’m sorry |
But I swear I’m on your side |
We are ever in the 99 |
