Consume(Etc.)

I wanna know
Why everywhere I go
I keep seeing the same
Beat down broken face
On folks saying they got it made
5 minutes ago
(Timmy's mother asked him to
Look out the window on
A Sunday drive and describe
to her what he sees)
I see preachers and teachers
And television features
Blindly being followed
By a world of selfish creatures
I see sickness and hate
No matter what the date
But they're sleeping and
They're sleeping and they're
Sleeping and God said

Abolish the American nursery rhyme
Kill the first born to the next warcrime
Don't fret we're overproducing all that's sacred
As Amazon stabbed Shoprite
In the throat with a rusty knife
While screaming we got it for half the price
And throw it all in your driveway hey hey
You won't need to think won't need to
Think a think won't need to think
Won't need to think a thing except

Consume consume consume
Consume consume consume
Consume consume consume
Consume consume consume

Lights are changing lights
Are changing lights are changing
Blue orange and yellow
Met a man on the corner
With a hood a scythe
Seemed a grim fellow
Said he once had big things
Lined up way back pre-pandemic
Instead they gave him this job
Goes to show you better
Reap what you sow
He said God said

Abolish the American nursery rhyme
Kill the first born to the next warcrime
Don't fret we're overproducing all that's sacred
As Amazon stabbed Shoprite
In the throat with a rusty knife
While screaming we got it for half the price
And throw it all in your driveway hey hey
You won't need to think won't need to
Think a think won't need to think
Won't need to think a thing except

Consume consume consume
Consume consume consume
Consume consume consume
Consume consume consume
