We're watching a brand-new show
Disbelief's been put on hold
We've got tickets right in the front row
To see the biggest thing that's ever been sold:
Dreams of our lifetimes wrapped in plastic
As seen advertised on the TV
Cast a spell on them
Pa** a curse on them
Pretend these dreams don't belong to them
Let the silk of the spider's web
Work its magic so they'll pay for them
Steal our dreams
Steal our souls
Sell ‘em on to the corporates and back to the proles
Look at the riff-raff and look at the cash
Keep an eye on the accounts and keep out the trash
Sell, sell, sell, sell, spin the carousel once more
One more brick between the rich and the poor
Everything looks so bright and shiny
Outlined, embossed, in bold
The dreams he have seem so ordinary
When these new ones are plated with gold
Where do we get these silver linings
As seen advertised on the TV?
Cast a spell on them
Pa** a curse on them
Pretend these dreams don't belong to them
Let the silk of the spider's web
Work its magic so they'll pay for them
Steal our dreams
Steal our souls
Sell ‘em on to the corporates and back to the proles
Look at the riff-raff and look at the cash
Keep an eye on the accounts and keep out the trash
Sell, sell, sell, sell, spin the carousel once more
One more brick between the rich and the poor
We work so hard to dream
Into the night time
Every morning it's on the horizon
Rising like the sun
How do we get to the end of the rainbow
As seen advertised on the TV?
Cast a spell on them
Pa** a curse on them
We'll profit from their dreams
Straight through the night work to summon the force
We'll seize the imagination
Steal our dreams
Steal our souls
Send ‘em home to their corporates and fight ‘till it grows
Look at the riff-raff and look at the cash
Keep an eye on the accounts and keep out the trash
Sell, sell, sell, sell, spin the carousel once more
One more brick between the rich and the poor
