Jane's Villains - Modern Life Lyrics

The guy at the Walmart
Doesn't know how to count back change
When its two twenty-five
I give him five twenty-five
And he looks like he might go insane

But that's just a dose of modern life
We'll accept it without even a little fight

I don't know if the guy at McDonalds
Even knows how to read
Cause there's no letters or numbers on the keyboard
Just pictures of the food

And now some jobs
Will run a credit check on you
Tell me what does that have to do
With what it is I do

But that's just a dose of modern life
We'll accept it without even a little fight

Every person I ever met
In my entire life
Has always said every politician's a crook
And belongs in jail or dead
But if I were to grab a gun
And say Hey let's fix this
Make it right
Well you better believe
I'd be the one that's going to jail

But that's just a dose of modern life
We'll accept it without even a little fight

There's so many inconsistencies
There's so many contradictions
There's so many reasons why
We go insane

We fight our physiology
We fight our common sense
We fight all that's right with the world
We will accept it
We'll even defend it
And we'll go with the flow
But you know where that goes
