Jesse Welles Lyrics
You will never own a home
You will rent until you die
But if I'm being optimistic
maybe it's a short living
and the rent won't be that high
You will never own a home
You'll be lucky for a tent
But there are plenty of camps
on the on and off ramps
where you don't have to pay no rent
Get a real bad rate
On a great big loan
Buy a cardboard box of a Horton home
it's an old old game
buy your own prison
hip hip hurray for family feudalism
You will never own a home
Maybe if your folks die
You can move up out the basement
Generational replacement
But I wouldn't get your hopes that high
You will never own a home
Baby it ain't in the cards
It's a boomer take
and you're a big snowflake
so get back in the apartment where you belong
You will have to mow the lawn
Patch the drywall, play pretend-
