[ Featuring The Echo ]
Sleep hasn't happened in two whole nights
The fan is on and the baby's crying
And we're out of things to eat
I spent all my cash and my wellbeing
Four eighty-five gasoline
Plus tax and hidden fees
Planning for the future is a fleeting thought
I'm barely hanging on to what I already got
Wait another year and you won't be so down
Well, thirty-five now and we're still running around
Ah, geez, you're kidding me
It's still out of reach
Middle class fantasy
We dream of what could be
It's still out of reach
Middle class fantasy
Please, when we're finished with counting change
Let's make plans for some better days
Break the lease and run away
Go on, talk about where you'd rather be
Down the road we'll live easily
Stop counting to payday
Planning for the future is a fleeting thought
I'm barely hanging on to what I already got
Thirty year fixed, wishful thinking at best
EBT, Medicaid, and subsidized rent
Ah, geez, you're kidding me
It's still out of reach
Middle class fantasy
We dream of what could be
It's still out of reach
Middle class fantasy
Geez, you're kidding me
It's still out of reach
Middle class fantasy
We dream of what could be
It's still out of reach
Middle class fantasy
