about

"bye bye jubilee" is a protest song

lyrics

ran outta gas money
gotta make the last tank last
we’re coming for you, big blue
and we’re coming up fast

two yellow lines
and a big old sky
full of seagulls
life’s a beach
if you keep to yourself
help nobody else
deliver ‘pon the promise of evil

two cokes in a paper bag
shake it up, jimmy
gimme a drag
this slice of the lot
ain’t no slice at all
aha burn it up
‘fore we go into free-fall

chorus
it gets hard to sleep
with the floodlights on
bye bye jubilee
bye bye jubilee

when you’re kept you keep
your blinders on
bye bye jubilee
bye bye jubilee

head to toe in the freshest polyester
sweatin’ out another car-park siesta
take another drug test—i think i can nail it
ha throw me a fiesta cause i’m bound to fail it

like a one trick pony in a one horse town
i’m never gonna live this reputation down
life’s a gas
let’s strike the match
and burn it to the ground

chorus

let the seagulls overhead be angels
they say we’re only safe
if they take our babies away
when they lock our babies away

paint my nails on the hood of the car
hoist the sails and count the stars
jesus might just love a shut-in
but we’re open air and we’re running

chorus x 2

ran outta gas money
gotta make the last tank last
we’re coming for you, big blue
and we’re coming up fast
