Consumers Lyrics

There’s an ad for the Ache in your back And a hack to perform The domestic chores in your life I realize I’ve been hypnotized A billboard sells the rich to the poor All the stars we adore We wish upon ‘em every night Realize I’ve been hypnotized Realize I’ve been hypnotized Saw a post for a new bar of soap It’ll cleanse you of sin Your flesh and blood born again I realize I’ve been hypnotized Commercials selling hope to the world Little boys, little girls Holding hands across picket lines Realize I’ve been hypnotized Realize I’ve been hypnotized Realize I’ve been hypnotized Realize I’ve been hypnotized Everything I see I want to buy Happiness is in a grocery line I saw the future In a matchbox car I saw our future In the aisles of Walmart There’s an ad for the drum in your head And the summoning dread That none of this is gonna survive I realize I’ve been hypnotized All the noise gets so hard to avoid Think it’s time we surmise The consumer is never right Realize I’ve been hypnotized Realize I’ve been hypnotized Realize I’ve been hypnotized Realize I’ve been hypnotized Everything I see I want to eat Happiness is in the devouring I saw the future In a heart attack I saw our future And I want to go back Saw an ad for a man with a match And a gasoline can; An immolation DIY
