The Problem is a venomous spit in the face of those who think all you need to do to succeed these days is cancel Netflix and make your own coffee. It’s an anthem for the disenfranchised, over qualified generation that don’t want to follow the miserable path that we have been sold over and over again
lyrics
I’VE GOT A TWO-BED HOUSE ON A CUL-DE-SAC
I’VE GOT A CAR ON FINANCE, HOW ABOUT THAT?
I’VE GOT A LITTLE DOG THAT THINKS HE’S A BIG DOG
AND EVERYTHING’S GOING PERFECTLY
THAT’S HOW IT IS IN THE MODERN AGE
FROM THE OUTSIDE, WE’VE GOT IT MADE
I’VE GOT A DEGREE AND A PHD
I’VE HAD A CREDIT CARD SINCE I WAS EIGHTEEN
BUT I’M ALWAYS SHORT WHEN THE RENT IS DUE
DEEPER AND DEEPER, TWO JOBS JUST WON’T DO
THAT’S HOW IT IS IN THE MODERN AGE
FROM THE OUTSIDE, WE’VE GOT IT MADE
WELL PULL YOURSELF UP BY YOUR BOOTSTRAPS
WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE I WAS FLUSH WITH CASH
I DID WHAT YOU SAID AND LOOK WHERE IT GOT ME
EVERYTHING IS CHANGING AND IT’S NOT STOPPING
THE PROBLEM’S NOT ME, IT’S FUCKING YOU
THE PROBLEM’S NOT ME, IT’S FUCKING YOU
THE PROBLEM’S NOT ME, IT’S FUCKING YOU
NO, THE PROBLEM’S NOT ME, IT’S FUCKING YOU
ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-EIGHT HOURS IN A WEEK
EIGHTY-FOUR SPENT WORKING DEAD ON YOUR FEET
WE JUST ABOUT MAKE IT TO THE END OF THE WEEK
BUT WE’RE THE STARBUCKS WASTERS, THAT’S WHAT THEY SEE
THAT’S HOW IT IS IN THE MODERN AGE
FROM THE OUTSIDE, WE’VE GOT IT MADE
WELL PULL YOURSELF UP BY YOUR BOOTSTRAPS
WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE I WAS FLUSH WITH CASH
I DID WHAT YOU SAID AND LOOK WHERE IT GOT ME
EVERYTHING IS CHANGING AND IT’S NOT STOPPING
THE PROBLEM’S NOT ME, IT’S FUCKING YOU
THE PROBLEM’S NOT ME, IT’S FUCKING YOU
THE PROBLEM’S NOT ME, IT’S FUCKING YOU
NO, THE PROBLEM’S NOT ME, IT’S FUCKING YOU
THE PROBLEM’S NOT ME, IT’S FUCKING YOU
THE PROBLEM’S NOT ME, IT’S FUCKING YOU
THE PROBLEM’S NOT ME, IT’S FUCKING YOU
NO, THE PROBLEM’S NOT ME, IT’S FUCKING YOU

So I’m a broke teen at the moment and can’t financially support y’all so I wanted to write this review to let you know that this album, along with all you other work is absolutely fantastic. The music here, along with the rest of their discography is amazing. Just wanted to let the world know that. bob-smiley
Merci Déhà for the download code. Lots of bands use these ingredients – pretty female vocals over doomy guitars always sounds good, but usually that's where the ideas run out. That isn't the case here. Each song is packed with ideas and evolutions, genres and references it's boring to list but not at all to listen to. A pleasure to have been introduced to this. Luke
Wife Patrol make instantly catchy alt rock with streaks of punk, new wave, and metal, overlaid with Bangles-esque harmonies. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 20, 2020
Even though they sing about injustice and being generally fed up with the male species, Camp Cope play like they’re having the time of their lives. Bandcamp Album of the Day Mar 2, 2018
