Oh Victoria, you're bleeding me dry;
I'll never have the bank account to keep you satisfied oh
Victoria, I'm running out of time
To get what I need to get to you while
I am still alive
'Cause all the girls I fall in love with move to the West Coast, you see
The venues and the tea houses are haunted by their memories
They delete their old accounts and start up ones for their new lives
And I am left behind
Oh Victoria, it's pearls before swine;
They don't love you like I do. Not all of them combined oh
Victoria, just take your hand in mine
And we won't let those white collar criminals
Make off with those reduced mortgage primes
But every boy I fall in love with moves to the East Coast, you see
They get jobs at Hydro-Québec and keep photos of their families
Out on their Ashley Nightstands, living docile urban lives
And I am left behind
Oh Victoria, you're bleeding me dry;
Keep coming back convinced "it'll be different this time" oh
Victoria, don't make my compromise
My morality for hydrated skin
Everyone else I fall in love with moves to the Northwest Territories
They visit once every seven months and get me high at the observatory
Their scars and their tattoos tell a more interesting story than mine
And I am left behind

"Are you out of your mind?" I said
"You're entitled to a twelfth of it"
From The Office of Bobby Manfred
Body fluids, blood, and spit
Take what you get
One-to-nine years of exploitation
Get over it
It's been this way for generations now
Call it off to call it on
Honesty is overrated
Come and see the other side
See this deal as we made it
Talk about it another time, I said
"Consider what it costs for us"
Yeah, the QO in exchange for the draft and
all your finite labour leverages
So play 'em off
Yeah, make them sell the others out
Who's gone soft?
Because I need another billion to spend on clout
Come and see the other side
Yeah, Monogamy is overrated
So I'm fucking over all these guys
Yeah, this pinched penny says "I made it!"
Call it off to call it on
Honesty is overrated
Come and see the other side
See this deal as we made it
So call it off, just call it off
Honest work is overrated
Squeeze the union 'til it coughs
Up all of it, and then castrate it
Disregard the artistry
'Cause hope is a means to an end
So maximize those margins please
I didn't get into this business to make fuckin' baseball friends

The City treats us all like Hell
But you still treat me well
In the centre, in the centre by the underfunded Safe Consumption Site
I have all the pieces, but I haven't put them together quite right
You're a Shining Force, patience
This Sega's no longer in it's Genesis
So do not enter, do not enter, gagged and tethered to fraying
Edges of a bloodline - I won't mistake the solar flares for the future being brighter
I just wanna be around you
By technical standards your mind is not a part of your body
And neither are your teeth but they still mean everything to me
"So come and get her, come and get her" Senate renders your body
Not in your possession; watch me make myself the centre of attention
But I just wanna be around you
I never shut up and I'm never listening
I am not absolved of guilt in your oppression;
I accept that
