Lyrics Rent

How do you document real life when real life is getting more
Like fiction each day
Headlines bread lines blow my mind
And now this deadline eviction or pay rent
How do you write a song when the chords sound wrong
Though they once sounded right and rare
When the notes are sour where is the power
You once had to ignite the air
And we're hungry and frozen
Life that we've chosen
How we gonna pay
How we gonna pay
How we gonna pay last year's rent
We light candles
How do you start a fire when there's nothing to burn
And it feels like something's stuck in your flue
How can you generate heat when you can't feel your feet
And they're turning blue
You light up a mean blaze
With posters and screenplays
How we gonna pay
How we gonna pay
How we gonna pay last year's rent
Don't screen Maureen it's me Joanne
Your substitute production manager
Hey hey hey
Did you eat?
Don't change the subject Maureen
But darling you haven't eaten all day
You won't throw up
You won't throw up
The digital delay didn't blow up exactly
There may have been one teeny tiny spark
You're not calling Mark
How do you stay on your feet when on every street
It's trick or treat and tonight it's trick
Welcome back to town oh I should lie down
Everything's brown and uh oh, I feel sick
Where is he getting dizzy
How we gonna pay
How we gonna pay
How we gonna pay last year's rent
Alison baby you sound sad
I don't believe those two
After everything
I've done
Ever since our wedding
I'm dirt
They'll see I can help them all out in the long run
Forces are gathering
Forces are gathering
Can't turn away
Forces are gathering
Forces are gathering
Forces are gathering
Hello Maureen your equipment won't work
Okay all right I'll go
How do you leave the past behind
When it keeps finding ways to get to your heart
It reaches way down deep and tears you inside out
'Til you're torn apart rent
How can you connect
How can you connect in an age where strangers in an age where strangers
Landlords lovers
Landlords lovers your own blood cells betray your own blood cells betray
What binds the fabric together
What binds the fabric together when the raging shifting when the raging shifting
Winds of change
Winds of change keep ripping away keep ripping away
Draw a line in the sand and then make a stand
Use your camera to spar use your guitar
When they act tough
When they act tough you call their bluff you call their bluff
We're not gonna pay
We're not gonna pay
We're not gonna pay
We're not gonna pay last year's rent last year's rent
This year's rent
This year's rent
Next year's rent
Next year's rent
Rent rent rent rent rent
Rent rent rent rent rent we're not gonna pay rent we're not gonna pay rent
'Cos everything is rent
Rent
