Bottom Line

Feb 20, 2008 11:28

Economic principles
Rock hard blocks invincible
Resisting reformation
Like a dam maintaining stagnation

Alibis to justify outrageous crimes
And why deny
We pad the bottom line to have had a little finer wine

Circumlocute
Profit, pollute
Your convoluted lies a cancer on our weary eyes

Mass-distribute
Cash reproduce
Your convoluted lies a cancer on our weary eyes

Consumerist compulsion
Spurs activist revulsion
Consumerist compulsion
Spurs activist revulsion

Drive flashy cars
Jive classy bars
Five debit cards
Flex credit charge
Don't need muscles as a hustler
Just rustle all the green
And they hustle in so keen

Bronze Adonis images
Clogging city billboards
Hailing chemical enhancers
Sale on self-inflicted cancers

Anorexic air-brushed models
Holding pretty bottles
"If you're like her you'll be coddled, so come and buy our product!"

False advertise
Mass-glitterize
Your convoluted lies a cancer on our weary eyes

Triglycerides:
Sex suicide
Your convoluted lies a cancer on our weary eyes

Profit margins could be harmed
What does it matter if they start a war on morals
Endanger corals to fuel their progress
When all attest that real keen scrapers covet the green paper
Employ cheap labour because their red cheeks savour that real meat flavour
Tender juices of prosperity tantalizing otherwise god-fearing men made effigies
And when thunder strikes their marble statues stand heftily
While abandoned mothers strive to feed their destitute progenies
Humanitarian atrocities masked by paper shredders
Because raping money lenders stage one-sided pocketbook fender benders to the delight of their rotten crook stock vendors
Since in the end, no matter how tattered are the rabbles
Hollow man scramble when they hear the Benjamins babble at their Alma Mater because all that matters is the bottom line

Consumerist compulsion
Fuels corporate destruction
