Sleater-Kinney - Price Tag lyrics
rate meLet’s go out
The buzizn’ cars
The traffic starts to buzz
The closet is stiffed
The fabric’s itch
The food’s a little rough
But I suck in the office and dry it
Fit it inside the club
I scramble eggs from head to legs
Your days haven’t been much
It’s 9 AM
We most clock in
The system waits for us
I got the shelves and with the rows
The products are like new
I can flip and switch the system
Fix, I can move off to the top
And nothing is wrong
It’s time to go
I’m never fast enough
We never really checked
We never checked the price tag
The cost comes in
It’s gonna be hard
We never buy again
We never find it so low
The gun shop’s gone
We gonna be alright
Instrumental
In the market the kids are starving
They reach for the good stuff
Let’s stay off label
To cheer what’s able
To save little up
Then net when your ship comes in
You’re away from us
Let’s get moving
Let’s get planning
It’s time to get way up
We never really checked
We never checked the price tag
The cost comes in
It’s gonna be hard
We never buy again
We never find it so low
The gun shop’s gone
It’s gonna be alright
Instrumental
I was lured, lured by the devil
I was lured by the cause
I was lured by the fear
All we had was lost
I was blind by the money
I was …from the greed
I’ll take time, run
I’m ready
We never really checked
We never checked the price tag
The cost comes in
It’s gonna be hard
We never buy again
We never find it so low
The gun shop’s gone
It’s gonna be alright
