lyrics

Pretexts of fucks given. Mind on coffee and a dart
Stare down the train tracks with thoughts of simply stepping out
Another pair of shoes has gone to ground
Slapped flat to the feet on another weekly round
Increasingly defeated at the edges. All tongue but no sole to speak about

No you don't hate Mondays - you hate Capitalism
No you don't hate Mondays - you hate Capitalism

Pitched in a dog-whistle. Ever more ears pricking up
Live out a lifetime up on the tray of the Hilux
Summon up with will to clamber down
The safety of the pack? Or the chaos of the crowd?
Increasingly belligerent, defensive
All teeth but no bite to bark about

You don't hate your country - you hate Patriotism
You don't hate your country - you hate Patriotism
No you don't hate Mondays - you hate Capitalism
Oh you don't hate Mondays, no

The relentless routines. The dying embers of your dreams
Is a lie aspirational? Will you die keeping your glass half full? x2

You don't hate your nation - you hate Nationalism
You don't hate your nation - you hate Nationalism
No you don't hate Mondays - you hate Capitalism
Oh you don't hate Mondays, no
