Lyrics

Oh isn’t this convenient
Look what I found
An 1962 penny on the ground

Oh isn’t this convenient
Look what I found
Money from my daddy given to me safe and sound

It’s my privilege
It’s my birthright
My prerogative
I’m legitimate

Oh isn’t this convenient
Look at my skin
I’m white and healthy and gorgeous and thin

Oh isn’t this convenient
Where was I born?
First-world country with a silver shoe horn

It’s my privilege
It’s my birthright
My prerogative
I’m legitimate

Oh isn’t this convenient
Look at my bits
A dick like I ought to have and thankfully no tits

Oh isn’t this convenient
Check out my flex
All of my crushes on the opposite sex!

It’s my privilege
It’s my birthright
If I inseminate
It’s legitimate

Don’t say words like women
Don’t say words like victim
Not your privilege

Don’t say words like gay
Fuck your equity all day
It’s my privilege

Oh isn’t this convenient
Look at my job
Paid all the money and promoted to the top

Hell I earned it by being a man
And white and rich, and anti-trans misogynistic, republican
A hater of swifties and a fan of the klan
a big-balled knob with a jerry can
It’s my privilege

It’s my privilege
It’s my birthright
My prerogative
I’m legitimate
It’s my privilege
It’s my privilege

Great song Cyndy. I’ve decided as one of the privileged I’m going to sing it each morning as I’m spooning out my muesli. So witty and yet powerful. Brilliant.

Great attitude to this. Some killer lines/moments like "silver shoehorn" and "Legitimite" haha

This is controlled anger personified! And it’s sure to be angry about!

this is so good. loved “legitimite” this is such a fun sounding protest song. but i can still feel the rage through the satirical and sarcastic lyrics. really great work on this. super catchy

This is GREAT. Your delivery kind of remind me of Garfunkel and Oates here. ♥️ The pronunciation of "legitimate" to force the rhyme is a really nice touch. And all the sarcasm, so biting. I love it.

So convenient 💁 Great scathing lyrics, sadly we all know guys like this :/ I love the way you used the backing vocals sparingly, but effectively! Great skirmish.
