Mr. Strange The Cars That Ate The World
Hey Mr. Smart Suit with the ten ton car,
Think you’re pretty big, but don’t know who you are,
Work for the gasoline and work for the chrome,
And hope we think your great as you drive down the road,
Watch all of the people falling into the grinder,
Got to have a big car, so work even harder,
Round and round and round you go,
Work, earn, buy, chase the lie,
Down and down and down you go,
Work, earn, buy ‘till the day you die,
Bliss is wrapped up in cellophane,
Currently on sale in your local superstore,
Bliss is shaped like an S.U.V,
You buy it, but still you want more,
Hey Mr. Smart Suit, do you earn lots of cash,
Do you fill that hole in your soul?
Buy anything at all?
Big screen TV, lifestyle accessory?
Like another big car? Just to be seen.
Round and round and round you go,
Work, earn, buy, chase the lie,
Down and down and down you go,
Work, earn, buy ‘till the day you die,
Ladies and Gentlemen around the world,
The cars are invading, driven by power steering,
Ladies and Gentlemen across the earth,
The cars will eat you whole and they want your soul,
Round and round and round you go,
Work, earn, buy, chase the lie,
Down and down and down you go,
Work, earn, buy ‘till the day you die,
Na na na na na, etc.
Capitalism will sell you the world,
It’ll sell you a dream and sell you a god.
