lyrics

Hacking out f-bombs through nicotine garments
Out by the old carport car hold vestiges and imprints
Of an ageless product reinforced by market place madness
We’ve got numbers based on your needs so we can tax you through these habits
Needs is a strong word, don’t you mean your after tax take home?
At last there’s an outlet to buy lotto tickets online
Open up new markets that simply cannot have a new addiction
Their last one left them in this state the next will grind them into fiction

Fad diet or a new way to utter I’m bored?
Chase your dreams, they say, find love, do your chores
Of course you look good, you’ve never been tried
It’s the scars and the aches in my joints coincide
With the real life 4-D experience we attempt
Some of them all gussied up, I left it unkempt
And no joke I feel good and I look like I feel and as far as I’m concerned
I’ve got a good deal

Chorus:
Disposable income
You lose and you win some

Your market attacks every sensory input feasible
Drown out the reason, brain screaming, new seasoning
They agree on a plan that meets all of their needs
And oh, the cash that remains will go to cater and feed
Into the next pointless purchase fueled by greed
Barely masking the search for some meaning and purpose
Barely hiding the true us alongside the circus

Integrate new data to free drug store naloxone
A street level crisis brings new life to the Help Phone
Petition signed anonymous, the shelters deemed cancers
They’re asked simple questions but they won’t give clear answers
So look to your symbols, find peace where you want
I’ll believe what I see and I’ll visit my mom
And I’ll sit quietly and assemble the pieces
And you won’t do the same, but I won’t judge your choices

Chorus
