lyrics

Out of the cosy womb
Into the mining boom
Gotta save up your share
of precious jewels

Out of the safe cave
Now you're a debt slave
Yeah they been taxin'
since your daddy ejaculated

Some things you work for
Some thing you earn
Some things you beg for
but it's not my turn

I won't be scraping my knees on your carpet

Out of the catacomb
Into the living room
I'm gonna die
in a tailored suit

Out of the embryo
Straight to the ATO
You get your digits
and a credit line for a loan

Some things you work for
Some thing you earn
Some things you beg for
but it's not my turn

I won't be scraping my knees on your carpet

Yeah it's just a little seed
but it sprouts like a weed
(Womb tax is comin')
Yeah it's just a little seed
but it sprouts like a weed
(Womb tax is comin', won't get no return)

Some things you work for
Some thing you earn
Some things you beg for
but it's not my turn

I won't be scraping my knees on your carpet
