lyrics

You pay your dues but you say it cheapens you / Don't have to work for peer review / Back in '94 this might have mattered more / Now we're second stage for the new gilded age / Let's make a scene / Let's keep it young and clean / Packaged in polypropylene / Back in '94 this might have mattered more / Now we're second stage for the new gilded age / These houses don't sing anymore because this is civil war / It's an inevitable defeat for the ruling elite / And I have no doubt you'll figure out what this song is about / because you're more vain than you act / You did your time / I did mine in 5/4 time / Now I'll enjoy my second prime / Back in '94 we might have mattered more / Now we're second stage for the new gilded age
