Longer Days in Shorter Years

[Verse 1]
Woah, woah, the king is dead
But nobody ever thought to find his head
A revolution for the price of bread
And everyone's working for the long weekend

[Refrain]
So longer days in shorter years
The lights go off and then the sun appears
A hard road, well, when you don't know
When you don't know what you are anymore

[Verse 2]
Cash prizes on a government loan
The day your life becomes a rent-to-own
Scratch and win at the end of the rope
The lottery is just a tax on hope

[Refrain]
Longer days in shortеr years
The lights come on and thеn the moon appears
And we all play tears for fears
When the apocalypse comes 'round every year

[Chorus]
'Cause we're living longer days in the shorter years
We're living longer days in the shorter years
We're living longer days in the shorter years
We're living longer days in the shorter years, uh-huh

[Verse 3]
Woah, woah, the cat came back
And she's taking out on all the bureaucrats
Cut down and cut the fat
The fittest survive as well as diplomats

[Refrain]
Longer days in shorter years
The lights go off and then the sun appears
A hard road, well, when you don't know
When you don't know what you are anymore

[Chorus]
'Cause we're living longer days in the shorter years
We're living longer days in the shorter years
We're living longer days in the shorter years
We're living longer days in the shorter years, uh-huh

[Bridge]
Nobody's wrong in this world no more
And no one's tired of being right
You might as well just enjoy the night

[Chorus]
'Cause we're living longer days in the shorter years
We're living longer days in the shorter years
We're living longer days in the shorter years
We're living longer days in the shorter years, uh-huh
