Lyrics
My name is not important
I've been sent to put an end
To the whinging and the ranting
Of the disloyal opposition
Now you've been heard to complain
You don't like the status quo
And you haven't met your quota of spending
Don't you know your mission
Is to conform and to consume
You're way behind now
So get your ass started
Where would we be if we all did what we wanted
The wheels of industry would grind to a halt
Our factories in Mexico would surely feel the jolt
Run through the maze
And get your piece of cheese
Don't come to us if you wind up on your knees
I know inside yes, you may be seething
But we want you good and tired
Just barely breathing
Modern life has got you down
We got pills for all your ills
And all you got to do is buy a lifetime supply of magic potion
And you won't know what you feel
What is fake and what is real
As they slowly take control of your mind
And your emotions
Until you finally toe the line
You're not exempt no
You won't be forgotten
Take it from me we know how to push your button
What you believe ain't subject to debate
We'll let you know what to love and what to hate
You'll be confused morning, noon and night
We'll keep your senses occupied till you're lobotomized
We'll entertain you till we drive you to drinking
Did you believe we want you to start thinking
We are the global merchants
We got needs for all your needs
To sell our way of life to the entire universe
Is our agenda
And those who try to resist
Will be targets on our list
We'll bombard them with consumer goods
Until they finally surrender
And learn to mend their frugal ways
I know right now it may seem controversial
But you'll learn to love and live in the endless commercial
