The Restless Consumer |
The people have heard the news |
The people have spoken |
You may not like what they said |
But they weren’t jokin' |
Way out on the desert sands |
Lies a desperate lover |
They call her the «Queen of Oil» |
So much to discover |
Don’t need no ad machine |
Telling me what I need |
Don’t need no Madison Avenue War |
Don’t need no more boxes I can see |
Covered in flags but I can’t see them on TV |
Don’t need no more lies |
Don’t need no more lies |
Don’t need no more lies |
Don’t need no more lies |
The restless consumer flies |
Around the world each day |
With such an appetite for taste and grace |
People from around the world |
Need someone to listen |
We’re starving and dying from our disease |
We need your medicine |
How do you pay for war |
And leave us dyin'? |
When you could do so much more |
You’re not even tryin' |
Don’t need no TV ad Tellin’me how sick I am Don’t want to know how many people are like me Don’t need no dizziness |
Don’t need no nausea |
Don’t need no side effects like diarrhea or sexual death |
Don’t need no more lies |
Don’t need no more lies |
Don’t need no more lies |
Don’t need no more lies |
The restless consumer lies |
Asleep in her hotel |
With such an appetite |
For anything that sells |
A hundred voices from a hundred lands |
Need someone to listen |
People are dying here and there |
They don’t see the world the way you do There’s no mission accomplished here |
Just death to thousands |
A hundred voices from a hundred lands |
Cry out in unison |
Don’t need no terror squad |
Don’t want no damned Jihad |
Blowin’themselves away in my hood |
But we don’t talk to them |
So we don’t learn from them |
Hate don’t negotiate with Good |
Don’t need no more lies |
Don’t need no more lies |
Don’t need no more lies |
Don’t need no more lies |
The restless comsumer flies |
Around the world each day |
With such an appetite for efficiency |
And pace… |
Don’t need no more lies. |
