Ni Pa La Pipa La Sal

It was a dark Friday night
one of those when the moon won’t show,
and you see that I’m so wasted
that I’m just a reflection of this society.

That’s lost right now in the struggle
trying to find a way out of this messed-up system.
How the hell do you expect me to start a family
when my paycheck doesn’t even cover the basics?

Rent’s through the roof, gas and
insurance, diapers and baby milk
and that guy’s wedding that
you don’t even know why you were invited.
The pharmacy, the bills, the kids’ school,
the taxes and the hell that gave us life.

And this is just a joke
that’s a piss-take and not worth a drop,
How do you expect me to focus
or even try to make it work?
Tonight I’m going out to drink.

And the politicians think they’re doing fine,
that it’s the young folks’ fault for lacking values.
How bold is ignorance,
how bad your feet smell!
And your hands smell worse,
even if you wash them a lot.

If it’s lost right now in the struggle,
trying to find a way out of this messed-up system.
How the hell do you expect me to start a family
when my paycheck doesn’t even cover the basics?

Rent’s through the roof, gas and
insurance, diapers and baby milk
and that guy’s wedding that
you don’t even know why you were invited.
The pharmacy, the bills, the kids’ school,
the taxes and the hell that gave us life.

And this is just a joke
that’s a piss-take and not worth a drop,
How do you expect me to focus
or even try to make it work?
Tonight I’m going out to drink.

And this is just a joke
that’s a piss-take and not worth a drop,
How do you expect me to focus
or even try to make it work?
Tonight I’m going out to drink.
