Consumers

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
