A Lot Less Ducks(human-written lyrics)

floorboard vintage reggae, rough vintage male Jamaica, short clipped

need a little hit of luck
looked through the trees
there's a lot less ducks

I looked through the streams
there's a lot less ducks

out in the swamp and the peat
yeah a lot less ducks in these streets

death insured
death and medicine insured
death and medicine and house insured
death and medicine and house and life insured
death and medicine and house and life and the vehicle insured
teeth feel good
wheels roll out
yeah we legal in the hood
yeah credit real nice
yeah the bank got food
been chasing that paper
cuz the rents always due
emergency coming
to surprise you soon
so better keep them knees feeling good
knees and the back feeling good
knees and back and feet feeling good
knees back feet and heart feeling good
knees back feet heart and mind feeling good
real lucky for you
because there's apparently some work to do
every day
infinitely in every direction
ocean to the heavens
roof to the basement
marble to the rich man
dry wall to the slave wage

i ain't
seen a
thing in
days I
feeling
like a
burden
like a
chain
a
claustrophobic
something
pressing
cattle
through
the
chute
in
a
very
specific
way

grandpa died poor
and dad died poor
and I'll die poor
grandma died poor
and mom died poor
and I'll die poor
disposable people
watch them go out the door
sunken eyes
watch them fall through the floor
time cut short
watch them never come home
like they left for a war
that is fought every day
that treats people all the same
they will bend or they break
either go all the way away
or you'll smile and say thanks
and you'll trade in your hours
or else
no meals
no showers.

next flowers we get gonna hit them graves
we had time
but we had to pay

them flowers gonna hit them graves
you have time
but its taken away
