Living Lo-Fi

Cigarettes can kill you

But if they don't, they make you stronger

You could've cut the six-pack rings

But you were out back wasting water

You were no good with a big knife

Yeah, you always cut your fingers

And me, I don't believe the dream

Or whatever, but the scars from that still linger

Are you living lo-fi?

Are you living in a mess you made?

Are you saving money crashing at the practice space?

Are you saving cigarette butts out of stale ash trays?

Are you living lo-fi?

Are you living with some chronic pain?

Are you using frozen food as medical first-aid?

Are you calling total bullshit on the welfare state?

David was a murderer

Who had a problem with the tall

And as somebody who's tall

You find the whole thing quite offensive

And now you feel you must take umbrage

With an Old Testament story

And me, I have not read the book

Or whatever, but you tell me that it's boring

Are you living lo-fi?

Are you living in a mess you made?

Are you saving money crashing at the practice space?

Are you saving cigarette butts out of stale ash trays?

Are you living lo-fi?

Are you living with some chronic pain?

Are you using frozen food as medical first-aid?

Are you calling total bullshit on the welfare state?

Now I want every man, woman, and child

And those who do not identify as a man, or a woman, or a child

To look to the person right next to you

'Cause the next to you is the coolest person at their job

They always get everyone a very thoughtful birthday present

They always say good morning in the morning

But not in a weird way, in a caring way

That almost everyone can appreciate

They're the most admired person

But not in a better-than-everyone type of way

End up being a good person type of way

And they are sleeping on a mattress without a bed frame

Are you living lo-fi?

Are you living in a mess you made?

Are you saving money crashing at the practice space?

Are you saving cigarette butts out of stale ash trays?

(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)

Are you living lo-fi?

Are you living with some chronic pain?

Are you using frozen food as medical first-aid?

Are you calling total bullshit on the welfare state?

(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
