Everything Must Go

Ah (Ah, ah, ah)

Everythin' must go (Everythin' must go)

Everythin' must go (Everythin' must go)

Everythin' must go (Everythin' must go)

No squares in the circle

Everything must roll (Everythin' must roll)

What's the plan when the smoke clears

An' it all takes its toll?

I don't know (Know, know, know)

I believe you won't keep political freedom

Unless you also have economic freedom

Which means that you must have a large part of free enterprise

In your whole economy (Economy, economy, economy)

Uh (Uh, uh, uh)

Futurist, ludicrous

Like the news, except my views are true and I cut through the mist

Scrupulous

I'll dismiss if you persist

Deep down I'm a youthanist

Still ruthless, bitter sweet

Neutralist, not new to this

I-I, I can see the world dwindlin'

Got my spider sense tinglin'

I'm just out here minglin'

All I see is politicians runnin' round tryna keep their pockets jinglin'

Sounds like I'm singlin'

Can't forget about the back scamps and the swindlin'

No point in lingerin'

Everybody's gotta eat, somebody's gonna cheat

(Everybody's gotta eat, somebody's gonna cheat)

Out here, on a tightrope, tryna stand on their two feet

Kids are tryna be street, it's peak

Get swept off of their feet before them condos are complete

Yeah, it's deep (Deep, deep, oh-oh)

Everythin' must go (Everythin' must go)

No squares in the circle

Everything must roll (Everythin' must roll)

Rollin' up that crow

It's gettin' out of control

What's the plan when the smoke clears

An' it all takes its toll?

I don't know (Know)

Everythin' must go (Everythin' must go)

Everythin' must go (Everythin' must go)

Everythin' must go (Everythin' must go)

No squares in the circle

Everythin' must roll (Everythin' must roll)

What's the plan when the smoke clears

An' it all takes its toll?

I don't know (Know, know, know)

Ma-ma-ma-many young people have just been denied their opportunity

To live in the area where they were raised

That's, that's a crying shame

Uh (Uh, uh, uh)

Bottle poppers and socialites

Gassed up and over-hyped, no oversight

Really puttin' on a show tonight

Not me, I'm overtight

Girl told me I'm miserable

She said, "Why you gotta overanalyse?"

Why can't you just let loose and just have fun like them other guys?"

Jumpin' round like orangutans on the table

With their sparklers

And their champagne, all publicised

"Why you always gotta summarise?

Why can't you just live life in the moment

And just act like this glamour life ain't a bunch o' lies?" (Bunch o' lies, bunch o' lies)

But I'm wide awake, I can't fake no more

Wide awake, I can't take no more

It was fun while it lasted

But it's the kind of shit I can't rate no more

Kind of shit you get carried away and start movin' loose

And get posted up on your Instagram and fans hate you for (For, for, for)

'Cause the excess just vexes

The world's more complex than being first name on the guest list

Or sexist, being reckless with a dancer in Texas

Named Lexus, I'm restless

Textin' all my exes like

Everythin' must go (Everythin' must go)

Everythin' must go (Everythin' must go)

Everythin' must go (Everythin' must go)

No squares in the circle

Everything must roll (Everythin' must roll)

What's the plan when the smoke clears

An' it all takes its toll?

I don't know (Know, know, know, know)

The last thing we want to have in our city

Iis a situation a, like, er, such as Paris

Where, erm, all the, the less well off are pushed out to the border

To the suburb

That is not going to happen in London

I will emphatically resist any attempt, er

To-to-to recreate a London

In which the, the rich and poor

Can't live together (Together, together, together)
