Letra de 'Houseplants' de Squid

Kids are getting smarter but the rent ain't getting cheaper
Zeitgeist operation and the skin is getting pinker
Houseplants in my future, houseplants to disguise
There's a rotten cesspit, fear in your eyes

Rotten cesspit, fear in your eyes
Houseplants, houseplants
We speak about our days, yeah, we speak about a raise
Everybody's bored, we're just too afraid to say
Houseplants in my future, houseplants to disguise

There's a rotten cesspit, fear in your eyes
Rotten cesspit, fear in your eyes
Rotten cesspit, fear in your eyes
Ooh

Houseplants, houseplants
Houseplants, houseplants
Houseplants, houseplants

Kids are getting smarter but the rent ain't getting cheaper
Zeitgeist operation and the skin is getting pinker
Houseplants, houseplants

We speak about our days, yeah, we speak about a raise
Everybody's bored, we're just too afraid to say
Houseplants, houseplants
We squeeze it at night, oh, we squeeze it so tight
We squeeze it at night and it's getting so tight
Houseplants, houseplants

Garden centre saviour, decoration ain't behaviour
Garden centre saviour, decoration ain't behaviour
Garden centre saviour, decoration ain't behaviour
Garden centre saviour, gardens ain't a saviour
Garden centre saviour, oh, gardens ain't a saviour
Garden centre saviour, garden centre saviour
Garden centre saviour, garden centre saviour!

Houseplants, houseplants
Houseplants, houseplants
Houseplants, houseplants
Houseplants
Houseplants

And I find myself looking for a future that doesn't exist
This is my beautiful house and I can't afford to live in it
Money through the back tunnel
1970s war picture living

Children's television
We’re still Making Plans for Nigel
Middle England
General conversation in a sympathetic tone
Trips to B&Q with your other half
This is how the other half lives

Green fingers
My friends have new meanings
Career driven
Guided by oxygen
Or maybe I'm just lazy

Houseplants
Houseplants
