Broke
Broke
Serialising the album Status by @meljoann:
Track 11
“‘Broke’ is about our lives under capitalism. It’s literally a torch ballad about nothing you do every being enough, you’re just broke all the time. It’s feckin’ tough.
I appear naked in the video, to make my “content” even more frightening to social media algorithms. I wanted to express openness and vulnerability, and give a sincere fuck-you to Big Tech’s distaste for the human body.”

Lyrics
I don’t know what you want
Feels like I’m never enough for you
Because I’m burnt out
I’m a joke
I cost a lot
Use up your coke
And you walk round my house like you’re in love
You’re in love
Tired of your business and I’m
tired of your crew
Sucking on diesel like it’s
not up to you
I can’t win with ya
Wait to be done with ya
I can’t win with ya
Wait to be done with ya
You can’t give me what I need
Too high to ever really feed me
‘Cause I be washed up
On the shore
With a wave
Of applause
When I climbed ev’ry mountain that you bought
Not enough
I can’t win with ya
Wait to be done with ya
I can’t win with ya
Wait to be done with ya
Cause I’m broken
I’m broke again
I’m broken
Broke again
Broken
I’m broke again
We’re broken
We’re broke again
and again
