We’re losing loved ones
And loved ones of loved ones
We’re losing mothers, and fathers
And uncles and aunts and cousins
And all our problems and troubles are multiplying by dozens
Impossible to make it sound better, yeah (this is shit)
It’s like a global vendetta, yeah (this is shit)
Feels like it’s going on for ever, yeah (this is shit)
By any reasonable measure, yeah, this is shit
We’re really trying
To keep on complying
But people are dying, we’re crying
It’s really unsatisfying
And that orange guy is denying he’s lying – it's terrifying
Impossible to make it sound better, yeah (this is shit)
It’s like a global vendetta, yeah (this is shit)
Feels like it’s going on for ever, yeah (this is shit)
By any reasonable measure, yeah, this is shit
Companies are failing
In spite of the bailing out they're unveiling
Impossible to make it sound better, yeah (this is shit)
It’s like a global vendetta, yeah (this is shit)
By any reasonable measure, yeah (this is shit)
Baby, this is shit
As the outlook blackens
We long for action, compassion
We're hoping those curves will flatten
We’re feeling battered, in tatters
There’s only one thing that matters
Impossible to make it sound better, yeah (this is shit)
It’s like a global vendetta, yeah (this is shit)
Feels like it’s going on for ever, yeah (this is shit)
Baby, this is shit
