Home Brew “Benefit”

The great thing about a song like this is how it has so much relevancy to New Zealand. You can tell that this song was made in New Zealand just by listening to the lyrics, and that’s not always a bad thing. At least not here anyway. There’s talk of the DPB, getting paid by WINZ, and dodging the bullet when your dole officer tries to make you look for a job. Then it’s all juxtaposed right next to these loopy stories about doing all this stupid shit so they can just keep doing what they’re doing. Like they say “this is just how it is when you’re broke.” I guess sometimes good things come out of not having much money. [Download it here]
