about

The unbearable lightness of the precariat.

lyrics

Jezebel, a scary girl and on the floor you're raising hell
Lose the horde and get on board the carousel
It goes around and where it lands, you'll never tell
A bedsit or a jail cell

Listen, Toots. Don't you ever get the urge to put down roots
You'll work for Tesco, Aldi, M&S and Boots
And there's a thousand others who can fill your shoes
A thousand others like you

Holding the wheel as you circle the sea
A new life is yours if you do not believe

Everyone, Peter, Paula, Tommy, Tina, Jack and Jane
On a bus or on a bike or on a plane
Learn another language. Take another name
Again, again, again, again

Riding the hollow, never feeding the hole
You stay light and hungry if you want to evolve

Every day, I must change
I must tear old skin away. I am reborn
In silence, we part

There are no words to say
There is no yesterday. I am reborn
In silence, we part

There are no words to say
There is no yesterday
