The best things in life are free. This release is neither. I’m charging money for it, although ultimately I don’t really care if you obtained it without paying for it. Ideally I’d like to make money from it, but please don’t let that stop you from redistributing it freely. Money makes the world go round. Time is money. My time is precious. I’ve spent a lot of time dreaming up “get-rich-quick” schemes but I’m yet to reach the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. It’s a constant battle. I’m frequently in the red, frequently behind. Frequently playing catch-up. It’s a dog-eat-dog world. Caught in a vicious cycle. It’s the circle of life. Like the rat in the wheel, like a slave to the wage. If you can’t beat ‘em, join 'em? How depressing is that!? Damn the man. Be yr own boss. Help this sell-out grow a nest egg – buy into this cash grab.
KEY CONCEPTS: (anti-)capitalism, labour, power, captivity and freedom, cynicism, exhaustion/burnout, bacon, breathing down necks, lost minds, freaks, plans, hands, feeling lucky to have you by my side.
This release was created on land that was stolen from the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin nation.
Track List
1. To Meagan Or Max Or Mark Or Mia Read Lyrics? She says she wants it on a Monday
When Monday comes around I can barely find my mind
I forget it all the time
I wake up on a Tuesday and something isn't right
I got Meagan on my mind
I can send it off by 17:00 and that's alright
I'm so lucky that my friends are on my side
Hopefully the sample lasts the night
Everything is running watertight
We got Excel
We got X-Lite
She says she needs it on a Monday
When Monday rolls around I can never find my mind
I forget it all the time
I wake up every Tuesday and something isn't right
I got Mia on my mind
If I send it off by 17:00 then I'm alright
I'm so lucky that my friends are on my side
I push myself through every fortnight
2. The Work Never Ends Read Lyrics?
I'm gonna go to work
I'm gonna see my work friends
And we're gonna do work
Because the work never ends
The boss is a jerk
Always breathing down my neck
But the job has perks
Like my mediocre paycheck
I'm gonna go to work
I'm gonna see my work friends
And we're gonna do work
Because the work never ends
The boss is a jerk
Always breathing down my neck
But the job has perks
Like my mediocre paycheck
Monday morning
Got a smile on my dial
We arrive at work
Walking single filе
I can never get a raisе
I can never get a rest
So I walk in blazed
Never gonna do a piss test
See upcoming pop shows
Get tickets for your favorite artists

Gotta give a damn
And gotta listen to the man
I gotta keep on makin' bacon
Gotta put food on the plate
And if I gotta make a crust
And if I'm gonna make a dime
I'll do it on my own terms
I'll do it in my own time
Cos they recognise my talents
Always stressing 'bout my balance
So I got in on the action
As a cog in their contraption
They remember my phone number
And they don't forget my birthday
And they keep me counting down the time
Til every second Thursday
I'm gonna go to work
I'm gonna see my work friends
And we're gonna do work
Because the work never ends
The boss is a jerk
Always breathing down my neck
But the job has perks
Like my mediocre paycheck
(Capitalists like myself who carry large sums of money often have such safety contrivances)
