lyrics
A self-affirmation stitched on a cushion
God loves me like he loves all his children
A Virgin Mary embossed on a candle
On concrete steps at a dead sinner’s vigil
The billionaire bunkers recessed into mountains
The war is afoot and we fight their battles
The African children mining the cobalt
That powers your car and charges our cellphones
The homeless are sleeping in houses of cardboard
Breathing in glue and swigging from bottles
The TAB’s full as three generations
Bet the extent of their welfare payments
The masses are vexed with shopping decisions
As buying and selling becomes our religion
If we’re killing ourselves, then how is it living?
We’re killing ourselves, and how is it living?
We’re killing ourselves, and how is it living?
We’re killing ourselves, and how is it living?
Have you got a couples minutes for a questionnaire?
How would you rate your satisfaction between 1 and 10?
In the name of standing up for our rights
I can’t move for the protests outside
Oh, I’m so convinced of the flaw of conviction
How do we lie to ourselves with such precision?
And what have I done? Can someone explain?
If I’m the architect of the next prison state
And we’re killing ourselves for something to blame
Yeah, we’re killing ourselves for something to blame
Yeah, we’re killing ourselves for something to blame
Yeah, we’re killing ourselves for something to blame
