Price Tag
Sleater-Kinney
[Verse 1]
The bells go off, the buzzer calls
The traffic starts to buzz
The clothes are stiff, the fabrics itch
The fit's a little rough
But I sunk it in, yeah every skin
Tryna fit inside the glow
I scrambled eggs, from little legs
The day's off in a rush
It's 9 AM, we must clock in
The system waits for us
I stock the shelves, I work the rows
The product's all I...
If I could flip the switch, the [?]
I could move us to the top
And numbers roar, it's time to go
But never fast enough
[Chorus]
We never really checked, we never checked the price tag
The cost comes in, it's gonna be high
We love our bargains, we love the prices so low
The good job's gone, it's gonna be rough
[Verse 2]
In the market, the kids are starvin'
They reach for the good stuff
But stay off labor, just 'til we're able
To save a little up
The next thing when the ship comes in
[?] for us
Just get movin', the wheels keep turning
It's time to go pay up
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I was lured by the devil, I was lured by the cost
I was lured by the fear the love we had was lost
I was blind by the money, I was numb from the glee
I'll take card, run, I'm ready, until sin [?]
[Chorus] + [Bridge]
