about

How would the world be different if we stopped buying things we don't need?

lyrics

Born to consume till we drop dead
Only digging a hole over our heads
And end up leaving our kids a pile of debt
What if I’m the only one
Who doesn’t think that this is fun?
Living life in the red

We’re conditioned to buy another one
To keep a factory churning In Shenzhen
Filling the air and ocean with poison
What if I’m the only one
Who doesn’t think that this is fun?
Living to buy more junk

Now You and me
We’ve had enough
We’ve got all this stuff nobody needs
Why does it seem the things we wanted
Are just out of reach constantly?

It’s better for them if you don’t think
Just be data for targeted marketing
And manipulated to buy more things
What if I’m the only one
Who doesn’t think that this is fun?
There I go thinking again

The powerful want you to be dumb
And distracted so there are no questions
About why they have so much and some have none
What if I’m the only one
Who doesn’t think that this is fun
Living under a thumb

Now You and me
We’ve had enough
We’ve got all this stuff nobody needs
Why does it seem the things we wanted
Are just out of reach constantly?

What if we don’t participate
In the social disaster they create
Break the cycle of poverty we’ve made
I hope I’m the only one
Who doesn’t think that this is fun?
We can all make a change
