That's A Lifestyle Lyrics - The Dirty Projectors

Who will stop wasting the lives of the brave 

Based on a lie? 

Who will stop wasting the forest and seas? 

We know what will survive 

Who will stop wasting the time? 

Who will stop putting quarters upon on our eyes? 

Who will not place himself higher than we 

For a senator's prize? 

We wander out wild-eyed 

Kinda drunk and kinda high 

We know what for and why 

That's a (product), that's a (brand), that's a (lifestyle)

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

'Cause the monster eats its young 

Till they're gone, gone, gone 

And the rules are there to hurt 

And that's the way it's done 

Yeah, the monster eats its young 

Till they're gone, gone, gone 

Till it's satisfied and done 

It wants blood, blood, blood 

Who could look up from the numbers and say 

"Something ain't right"? 

Who could disrupt the abundance and pray 

Not for weight but for light? 

How could we risk the empire 

As the apprentice descends into seasons of idol 

When our old white Lincoln encrypted and high 

Sputters down from the sky 

Red-eyed in July, weeping glycol? 

Photos 

We shout out loud, megaphone 

Kinda zoned but listening in 

We browse our own episodes 

That's a product, that's a brand, that's a lifestyle 

'Cause the monster eats its young 

Till they're gone, gone, gone 

And the rules are there to hurt 

And that's the way it's done 

And the monster eats its young 

Till they're gone, gone, gone 

Till it's satisfied and done 

It wants blood, blood, blood 

That's a (product), that's a (brand), that's a (lifestyle) 

That's a (product), that's a (brand), that's a (lifestyle) 

When the predator dips out from the haze 

Who knows the prize? 

When the words mercy and justice are raised 

Members only apply 

When will we count all the signs? 

When will we finally not let fear weaponize? 

When will the courage to breathe and let breathe 

Assure the land will survive? 

'Cause the monster eats its young 

Till they're gone, gone, gone 

And the rules are there to hurt 

And that's the way it's done 

Yeah, the monster eats its young 

Till they're gone, gone, gone 

Till it's satisfied and done 

It wants blood, blood, blood 

That's a (product), that's a (brand), that's a (lifestyle) 

That's a (product), that's a (brand), that's a (lifestyle)
