It's Ridiculous ft. Louise Gaffney Lyrics

Reality’s piling up

I keep a straight face but it’s calling my bluff

The pressure rains from above, from above

Some days I’ve just had enough

Throw down all my clubs

Take my ball out the rough

And run just like Forrest Gump

Forrest Gump

You can always run but you can never hide

The wolf at your door, just a matter of time

Oh put on a nice suit and stand in line

Anything for peace of mind

It’s ridiculous, how you gonna live like this?

Slavin’ every day to make enough, just to exist

It’s ridiculous, 9 to 5 you want to quit

But the bills are due and

The pay cheque you can’t resist

It’s ridiculous, forget about happiness

Take your crumbs and pennies

Shut your mouth get on with it

It’s ridiculous, spend yourself for their wallet

The human race down on their knees

In the name of profit

Can’t stop right now, have to rush

So tired of telling myself one last push

Is it really worth so much?

Worth so much

The belly of the beast you can’t satisfy

No struggle left in you

Lord knows you have tried

Oh you have to give in just to survive

That’s how the system’s designed

It’s ridiculous, how you gonna live this this

Slavin’ every day to make enough, just to exist

It’s ridiculous, 9 to 5 you want to quit

But the bills are due and

The pay cheque you can’t resist

It’s ridiculous, forget about happiness

Take your crumbs and pennies

Shut your mouth get on with it

It’s ridiculous, spend yourself for their wallet

The human race down on their knees

In the name of profit

It’s all ridiculous

It’s ridiculous

It’s ridiculous

It’s ridiculous
