Me and my cousins
We're a dime a dozen
Uh uh, we're about to make nothing
Up to our necks in debt but they haven't got our heads yet
Me and my girlfriend
Dollars to donuts
Uh uh, we're about to make nothing
Up to our necks in debt but they haven't got our heads yet
My living wage puts my shame on center stage
Me and my brethren
Amir and Kevin, Eddie,
Ceasar, Clive, Scott and Devon
Up to our necks in debt but they haven't got our heads yet
Me and women
Jenna and Gabi,
Angela, Cristal, Rosanna and Abby.
Up to our necks in debt but they haven't got our heads yet
My living wage puts my shame on center stage
"Living Wage" is a pay-what-you-want 'double A-side', as well as Tiers La Familia's third release in as many years. Appearing for the first time on a TLF recording is the live band, consisting of bandleader Sef Sidney, Cheryl Kingan, and Jeff Tobias. The "A side" is their much-loved new arrangement of "My Living Wage," developed at their 2023 New York shows. It's followed by the other "A side," a celebratory remix of set mainstay "Deep Fake Nine" by Baltimore legend Height Keech, who slickly accents TLF's permeability with other active couture. Only available on Bandcamp.
