lyrics

You're not a Person, You're a Consumer

I love you so much, I'll make money off of you
Its better to have than it is to do
Monkey dressed in pants, eyes glazed for shiny baubles
Be a good citizen, learn how to grovel
Monster truck commuter run your credit card bills
Sugar-free sweetener, all night dick pills
Replace government of the people with corporations for the profits
Occupy your mind, stop being curious

You're not a person, you're a consumer
And the best things in life aren't free
We've got to all pitch in, we've got to do our part
We've got to grow the economy

Buy our newest drug if you want to calm your children
Raised on entertainment that normalizes killing
Work longer hours, scrimp and save
To buy plastic junk made in some sweatshop by slaves
Its too good to be true, but don't be suspicious
Now you've got a friend in the diamond business
You're not the sum of what you do or what you invent
You are what you own, buy, worship and covet

You're not a person, you're a consumer
And the best things in life aren't free
We've got to all give in, we've got to do our part
We've got to grow the economy

Get Paid, upgrade, binge watch, celebrity gossip
Newest phone, driverless car, pyramid scheme, corporate dream

You're not a person, you're a consumer
And the best things in life aren't free
We've got to all pitch in, we've got to do our part
We've got to grow the economy
