Everyday, every minute, everywhere
We are assailed by appeals to consumption
Always the same song with a few
variations:
You must buyyou must buy
You must buy a cage to trap the beast within
You must buy revolvers to sleep well
You
must buy a house with bullet-proof doors
You should even buy a fake wife to wax your floors
You must buy this new car to go
far
You must buy that new pool to be cool
(and soon youll rent the sky to hang yourself with your tie or maybe slash your wrists
with a loaded credit card)
You need more and more s**t to be wise
You must buy more stuff to looks nice
(And soon youll need a
psy cause youll be wondering why your whole existence is so devoid of sense)
[Chorus:]
What you get aint what you
see
Publicity deforms reality
Use your f*****g brain cells
To get rid of the barcode blindfold
What you get aint what you
see
Dont shut your mouth, dont let it be
Its now or never, the brainwash is over
Take off the barcode blindfold
They will
turn garbage into gold,
They will sell cosmetics for your soul,
Instant pleasure and plastic love,
They might even solve what
cant be solved
Top-one illusion for a limited time
Packaged paradise and chap peace of mind
Wake up and tear down the
screen
Were not living in a f*****g dream.
[chorus]
