In The Room

Well maybe
Passive participant
Though the scene has changed
The game remains
Pre-determined
From straight suburban houses
They celebrate their own
Wish that I’d have known
Subscribing to the old standard

So what is it that’s changing, really?
When the men in the room are still making all the rules?
Yeah, the old boys club does what it always does
And now they’re going to judge me
And judge me from a privileged, rich kids point of viеw
Commodify the culture
Grab that corporate dollar for you

Whеn your precious small town poetry
Meets big city reality
It’s just business

So what is it that’s changing, really?
When the men in the room are still making all the rules?
Yeah, the old boys club does what it always does
And now they’re gonna try to judge me
And judge me from a privileged, rich kids point of view
You can’t tell me cos I was in the room

I was in the room!
Privileged point of view!

So what is it that’s changing, really?
When the men in the room are still making all the rules?
Yeah, the old boys club does what it always does
So if you’re gonna go on and judge me
Then judge me from yr privileged, rich kids point of view
Commodify the culture
Grab that corporate dollar for you
