Sweatshop Union - Truman Show lyrics
[Sweatshop Union - Truman Show lyrics]
Deceit and denial
What you're looking for can't be found
Believe me, child
No bookstore can help you now
It doesn't have to be loud
I happen to be up in your face
Most of the time won't even notice
Half the bullshit in the place
All the bad news in your home
Classrooms and malls
And now a quick passage yall
That I picked up in a bathroom stall
Save the music erase the evil
Save the children save the people
Save the trees natures wealth
Save the world save yourself
Better safe than sorry
Better late than never want to get the props
Better make the effort
Don't fall in love with the pinup queen
Stand right, walk left, don't swim upstream
A to the E, I, O, U
Sometimes it’s Y when the I won’t do
Press 1 for blame press 2 for proof
But, you need to call this number
If you need the truth
We think that we see
But we don't see the half
We think that we've learned
But we can't do the math
We think that we know
Let yourself go, let yourself go
Let yourself go
We gotta cut the bullshit and show the proof
Rip the tree out of the ground
And expose the roots
Cause people love and found
That we won't improve
Shit they keep us held down
As the chosen few just sit, get rich
What we're going through
Cause 9-5 slaves slave for
These corporate fools
And try to deny and distort the rules
Inside our minds build cages
That force the youth
In the schools have been trained
To ignore the truth about the nature of the
Threat that approaches you
Before you take another test
Know the joke's on you
They only gave you the textbooks
To mould your views
Having with your soul confused
Some people don't believe they got
Us on the loose
Runnin' around chasin' after golden shoes
Livin their whole lives doin what
They told you to
If I only knew what the way was
What would I do?
If you knew what you knew could save us
Would you try to?
Cause we're living in the Truman Show
There's a limit to what you can know
Shit it's different than what
You've been told
You've been sold second hand human souls
We think that we see
When we don't see the half
We think that we've learned
But we can't do the math
We think that we know
Let yourself go, let yourself go
Let yourself go
We think that we see
When we don't see the half
We think that we've learned
But we can't do the math
We think that we know
Let yourself go, let yourself go
Let yourself go
What you're looking for can't be found
Believe me, child
No bookstore can help you now
It doesn't have to be loud
I happen to be up in your face
Most of the time won't even notice
