lyrics

I know I'm not the poet who inspires you
Hey, didn't wanna anyway
I'd rather earn my way, legit to my grave
Looking forward everyday

Not afraid to sweat out the fat of your so called society
Out in the mall lumbering herds are out shopping
With not a care in the world for the world

Hear that factory horn a-blowin'
Waste a brand new day
Toxic clouds float over China
The latest fashion on display

Tell me when did sloth and gluttony drop from those seven deadlies?
Yea, when every temple became a landfill
What excuse did you use?

I know it's my biggest fear
I don't wanna become one of you
A fat pampered American
With a brain-dead wife and my spoiled dumbass kids

I'm not the enabler persuading you
"Say, everyone is beautiful!"
The truth does hurt, but when it gets real
You aren't able to run away.

These colors don't run: They don't even jog.
Even the rikishi have dignity

My underfunded, hollowed out education doesn't protect me in the least bit
I wouldn't know a bias if it slapped me in the face
Spoon-feed me what you please, fill my empty head with dreams.

Stop this embarrassing quest for convenience and shortcuts in life
We glorify stupid behavior
we applaud the fools for wasting our time.
