Animal Mother - Civil Society lyrics

Here it comes, there it goes, now gone for good In the door, back out, now the door's been shut Something new walks in, feeds upon your lust Not time left for concerns on wants you have forgot The bra** ring being held for your eager eye Is a fad, a trend, a trap for your money Though at times it is hard to choose between What you think you want, and what you really need (Chorus #1) All I see is green The color of greed Along with envy, in me Gears in a spending machine Industry unchecked equals boom and bust Federal reserve board made to adjust Even with Sherman act-it's not enough To break the cartel and to bust the trust (Chorus #2) Don't give a damn for us Can't check material lust Got their mattress stuffed On the backs of us This snare of corporate greed Making useful things obsolete Behind closed doors they meet To take money from you and me Here it comes, there it goes, now gone for good In the door, back out, now the door is shut Something new walks in, feed upon your lust No time left for concerns on wants you have forgot Money fulfills our needs Primes the economy In the 1930's, consumerism made us Spend and spend for liberty This is what we call equality Unending lust for property We now call it civil society
