Bite the Bullet
PROF. CORTON · BREATH · Out 23 October 2026
The opening single of BREATH. Bite the bullet, they say, but you've already sold your teeth. Working yourself to the bone while the water keeps rising, a furious song about the cost-of-living squeeze and the people selling towels in life vests.

Lyrics
They say we have to bite the bullet,
But ive already sold my teeth
Oh im working myself to the fullest
But it will not earn the bread i need
Im bearly getting by
Looking for high or dry
My head is getting hotter
My toes touching the water
They say we need to save on gas now,
But they've got always something coocking up.
They say we need more tax on cash now
So bend over, take it, please shut up
Im running low on fumes
Im losing all my skrews
Is this main course or just a starter
Now im knee deep in the water
And i fear it will get wetter
I fear its not a test
I know screaming wont make it better
They're selling towels wearing life vests
They say you have to censor thought now
But that does not meet reality
They say that your food cant be bought now
But theyre just creating scarcity
I dont want to drown
No turning n'other leaf
Im smokin all my grief
The're no chips for me to barter
Now im neck deep in the water
