Capital (It Fails Us Now) Lyrics

I believe it's, "I need a freezer, I need a hi-hi". The essentials, of course.

Also, they seem to be switching between "One day old and living on credit", and "One day all men are living on credit" - very clever twist.

Oops, it's "hi-fi"

These lyrics are ALL WRONG like they are on every other lyrics website. I can't believe this. At some point, some clueless person or thing write what sounded like the lyrics and then it just got copied to every other lyrics website. It's totally stupid sounding this way. It's sad and stupid how they make money off of b.s. that is not accurate.

@whateverstupid: I couldn't bear how bad it was, either, and fixed it (to the best of my abilities (missed some of the quieter mumbles near the end)).

@mumajor: I couldn't hear them say "all men are", so I took it out, even though it is a nice twist.
