about

MELANIE: I have a surprise for you
GISELLE: (in French) What is it?
MELANIE: It’s a mix tape.
GISELLE: (in French) What is a mix tape?
MELANIE: I’ll tell you later. Just listen for now.
GISELLE: Ooo-ooo.

lyrics

HOW DID IT COME TO THIS? (EVERYBODY’S GOT TO HUSTLE)
HOW DID IT COME TO THIS? (EVERYBODY’S GOTTA GRIND)

THE FINELY TUNED CLAUSTROPHOBIA
OF SIMPLY TRYING TO MAKE ENDS MEET
THE NEO-LIBERAL WET DREAM
THAT PRICE FIXES ALL OUR NEEDS

ROPING US IN WITH REVERIES
WE NEVER ASKED FOR NOR EVER WANTED
STRAPPING US IN, LOCKING US DOWN,
THE SEAT BELT SIGN IS PERMANENTLY ON

HOW DID IT COME TO THIS? (EVERYBODY’S GOT TO HUSTLE)
HOW DID IT COME TO THIS? (EVERYBODY’S GOTTA GRIND)

SEQUESTRATING OUR COOPERATIVE SPIRIT
SUCKING OUR SKILL SETS DRY,
ASSET-STRIPPING OUR CREATIVITY
BURGLARIZING OUR SOULS

PILFERING OUR BEST IDEAS,
MISAPPROPRIATING OUR BETTER NATURE
STEALING OUR LABOR, FILCHING OUR TALENT
TAKING UP ALL OF OUR TIME

☠︎ ⍟ ☠︎

MELANIE: Yeh! You should hear these guys.
GISELLE: What are they called?
MELANIE: Fucqueen.
GISELLE: Fucqueen?
MELANIE Cool or what? Oo-oo.
GISELLE: Very cool! Ooo-ooo.
