What's the point of shopping if you can't go really big?
you think that a market on this planet is the thing,
Let's go shopping for our nuclear rags,
With the people who don't care just what's on the tag! Yeah!
Shop, shop, shop, shop, shop 'til you drop,
Shop 'til you drop dead.
Shop, shop, shop, shop, shop 'til you drop,
Shop 'til you're well fed! Yeah!
You can all keep going with iridium flames,
Now we will market to the people who eat brains,
Shop, shop, shop shooting laser beams,
Intergalactic consumer zombies! Yeah! Yeah!
Shop, shop, shop, shop, shop 'til you drop,
Shop 'til you drop dead.
Shop, shop, shop, shop, shop 'til you drop,
Shop 'til you're well fed! Yeah!

We can put the words here,
Save them for last Tuesday,
Rocking out they said so,
Our clothes are just right, oh!
Right to the liquor store,
Can we use the word “blood?”
Do the girls all look bored?
Excreta the excitement!
Sing about debauchery,
Is this a problem? Is this a topic? Is this still valid?
It might get you some.
We can make Hollywood,
Maybe even graduate,
Any kegger stories?
So we can group… fluctuate,
Keep on going viral,
It’s easy to be social,
It helps with denial,
And why be too creative?
Sing about debauchery,
Is this a problem? Is this a topic? Is this still valid?
It might get you some.

Ozymandias

"I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: "Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
`My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings:
Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away".
- Percy Bysshe Shelley, 1818

Up here is what you see and what you see,
And what you see is what you done,
And what you see is having fun,
Open your heart.
$2.00 Wine!
No victims here,
$2.00 Wine!
We're on the good foot.
Take that no sense of right your fun is mean and dumb,
And you won't change to suit no purpose,
So you'll be stopped my name is Popeye,
Open your heart.
$2.00 Wine!
No victims here,
$2.00 Wine!
We're on the good foot.
$2.00 Wine,
Anywhere, anytime,
$2.00 Wine,
It'll make you see or it'll make you go blind,
Your choice friend.
We're on the good foot.

Earth is so big,
The sky is far away,
Stay as you are,
The pride of leaders taking you for a fall,
Deception at what cost,
Is this just computer chip loss?
New, medium, old thought,
The tribal war is now store bought.
Mute witness to!
Mankind’s fucking folly!
Earth is so big,
The sky is so tall,
Stay as you are,
The pride of leaders taking you for a fall,
Deception at what cost,
Is this just computer chip loss?
New, medium, old thought,
The tribal war is now store bought.
Mute witness to!
Mankind’s fucking folly!
You! With your toys,
As this place is being destroyed!
Earth is so big,
The sky is far away they say,
Stay as you are,
The pride of leaders taking you for a fall,
Deception at what cost,
Is this just computer chip loss?
New, medium, old thought,
The tribal war is now store… bought.
