Consumer's Rap-Sody Songtext
von Thumb

You could try to get away from it
But you can′t get away from it
You could try to get away from it
But you can't get away from it
When was the last time you made your own decision
Free from whatever distracts you from your vision?
Free from the pressures of society′s rule books
Free from how you act, free from how you look
Now really think about it, it's not a tough one
You are ruled by someone
Wherever you go and whatever you may do
That someone else is always there to chew
Turn on the telly, you open the paper
You're being ruled by big money scrapers
Whose sole intention, still this dimension
Is showing ad bombs to grab your attention
Don′t take your life in the healthiest form
You need to fit in, that you need to conform
Be one of the hippest, one of the victims
Consumers out there within the norm


Stay within your norm
But the message is so much deeper
Than to change your look or who you are
It′s a corporate game and you're the play ball
In a pinball machine that′s too tall
You're bouncing back from side to side
Any direction that they might like
As long as you′re betting upon your sober
And if not, game over
Box out, make money, be model, drive a car
Screw everybody else or you won't get far
Take your views and if that is not enough
Most importantly, go and buy stuff
That′s the policy we're talking about now
We're all in it, wow!
Wherever you go and whatever you may do
That policy is always there to chew
Sell through commercials as far as I can see
Whatever happened to a word like "quality"?
A colorful wrapper for a beautiful paper
We may be buying anything sooner or later
So really think about it, it′s not a tough one
You are ruled by someone
That someone will make you do just what he wants you to
He′s got the means to fuck with you
And he'll fuck with you
But the message is so much deeper
Than to change your look or who you are
It′s a corporate game and you're the play ball
In a pinball machine that′s too tall
You're bouncing back from side to side
Any direction that they might like
As long as you′re betting upon your sober
And if not...
Inside of me and inside of you
That policy is always there to
Inside of me and inside of you
That policy is always there to
Inside of me and inside of you
That policy, the policy is always there to
Inside of me and inside of you
That motherfucking policy is always there to
It's what you think and it's what you do
The policy is inside of you
It′s what you think and it′s what you do
That motherfucking policy is inside of you
