Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Turn down the gas and try to ration
Do the maths and cut back fashion
There's no cheaper funeral than direct cremation
A ham of truth from the men of Kent
[Chorus]
But how we gonna pay the rent?
How we gonna pay the rent?
[Verse 2]
Soft RIP funk was playing
In the over-priced grocery store
This band exists to sell beverage
While the venue tries to make a dent
Turn down the gas
Turn down the gas
Turn down the gas
Turn down the gas
[Chorus]
How we gonna pay the rent?
How we gonna pay the rent?
How we gonna pay the rent?
How we gonna pay the rent?
[Verse 3]
He wore a cap that said, "Make life boring"
Had to go out for dismal foraging
As deliveries seem grotesque
Now, it's time to erect that tent
Now, it's time to erect that tent
Now, it's time to erect that tent
[Chorus]
How we gonna pay the rent?
How we gonna pay the rent?
How we gonna pay the rent?
How we gonna pay the rent?
