Kingdom of Loss

Someone sells us Toys in a cheap cartoon Someone sells us Cars in the latest Bond That?s coming soon Someone sells us Trends through a sitcom star Someone sells Herself in a docu-soap That goes too far Life on sale Can someone please just tell me what happened? I mean, first we pay for fastfood that will make us all fat and tired So then we pay for elevators So we won?t have to climb the three stairs up to our aparents Then we buy freakin? StairMaster machines So we can burn away while watching someone make real food on TV Now, if that doesn?t make us winners I don?t know what will I bet we would hang ourselves, if the world would just cut us the slack And now you think maybe you should see a shrink Help you feel alive again - yeah, that?s a plan Just tell us who to pay Someone sells us Man in a White House speech Then Woman tightly pressed Between two bouncing breasts on a Baywatch beach Someone sells us Us everywhere I turn Then introducing Them To earn stock points on our concern All for sale It?s all for sale... Welcome down to planet Earth Please don?t ask us what it?s worth You will notice that the world you found Is slightly tattered and worn down Someone sold us every stain Now if you wish to complain There?s an open spot at 6 pm That?s when Caucasia is listening If you?re tearing down my world Please just try to do it gently... There is love inside For a dream that has to die See, it?s really all about time and choice: The fastfood saves us enough time to squeeze lunch in exactly when we want it The elevators save us just a little more And the StairMaster lets us choose exactly when to walk the stairs Time is so important these days It?s becoming a fucking disease And I guess in a way it is Since it is bound to kill us all in the end Now with all the time and money we stash away on others? expense I can only assume that the tickets to hell are really expensive And for some reason It?s important to be first in line Someone sells us God in 2-for-1 with Shame Someone sells us War And the marketing looks just the same Someone sells us Fear on TV each day A shape for every taste If the flavor?s right we gladly pay All on sale We?re all on sale... Welcome to the only Earth Please enjoy your only birth You will learn to take more than you give Buying scars we must live with Someone sold us every scar They somehow made us what we are We all want that spot at 6 pm But no one is really listening No Not anymore We?re all too busy Buying Sex Buying War Oh Buying Self Confidence Security Insurance Plans Just buying More & More As you?re tearing down my world Please just try to do it gently... (there?s still love inside for the dream that had to die) As you?re tearing down our world..
