Capital (It Fails Us Now) - Gang Of Four
The moment I was born
I opened my eyes
I reached out
For my credit card
Oh no I left it in my other suit
Capital it fails us now
Comrade let us seize the time
(I left it in my other suit )
On the first day of my life
I opened my eyes
Guess where
With superstars
Surrounded by luxury goods
I need a freezer
I need a hi-fi
No credit no goods
Call my bank I say
They say"we're bankrupt"
Capital it fails us now
Come out let us seize the time
Capital it fails us now
Comrades let us seize the time
Capital it fails us now
(I reached out for my credit card)
Oh no I left it in my other suit
One day old and I'm living on credit
One day old and I'm living on credit
(I'm selling credit just)
One day old and I'm living on credit
( At a superstore)
One day old and I'm living on credit
One day old and I'm living on credit
