Current song lyrics
Why do you speak with that accent now?<br>Everyone knows you´re not from the streets.<br>You went to prep school in Cambridge,<br>With daughters and sons of the privileged elite.<br>Their fortunes from shipping and industry,<br>Their futures in yacht clubs and tails.<br>So why do you speak with that accent now?<br>Everyone knows you´re moonlighting here.<br>To avail yourself of your heritage,<br>For a season or two in the sun.<br><br>Draw well from the funds in the trust,<br>Thanks to the fathers of fortunate sons,<br>For us it´s a matter of charging the gates<br>For you it´s a matter of blood and connections<br><br>Of blood and connections.<br><br>So who do you fool with that costume now?<br>Everyone knows you´re not who you seem<br>You´ve got a hard way about ou<br>For someone whose passage is already paid<br><br>By the sins and the schemes of your father<br>And the infinite reach of his arm<br><br>Draw well from the funds in the trust,<br>Thanks to the fathers of fortunate sons,<br>For us it´s a matter of charging the gates<br>For you it´s a matter of blood<br>Drink well from your bottomless cup<br>And bask in your good fortune<br>For us it´s a matter of charging the gates<br>For you it´s a matter of blood and connections<br>So where will you be when you tire of the fun<br>The escape, the charade, and your time in the sun<br>I know everyone does their own reinvention<br>But yours has a taste that´s hard to swallow<br><br>And what will you tell of your tenure with us?<br>Will you build yourself up, like the size of your hunt?<br>If they´re anything like what you´ve been telling us,<br>Those stories will make true believers<br>Of the chumps and the fools.<br><br>So why do you speak with that accent now?<br>Everyone knows you´re not from the streets.
