lyrics

Lauren!

What?!

Come down stairs and get your Dad a bloody beer from the fridge!

But you can't pause an online game, Dad!

Tear the door right off the hinges, cos you know you need to know
Privacy it is a privilege
What do you do when it's not about you?

Hidden cameras in the bedrooms
Unlocked phones and firewalls
Privacy it is a privilege
Who would ever wanna be like you?

Suburban tyrant, with skulls under your feet
You wanted to be the big man, keep them sucking at your teat

Suburban tyrant, with skulls under your feet
You wanted to be the big man, keep them sucking at your teat

Suburban tyrant, with skulls under your feet
You wanted to be the big man, keep them sucking at your teat
