Snog 'Born To Be Mild '

There is noting wrong with your television set
There is noting wrong with your television set
We will control all that you see and hear
We repeat we will control all that you see and hear

Wy life consecrated by the Vogue year book
My style dictated by the Rick Astley look
I drive a car but I can't read a book
I don't eat meat except for a little bit of chook

Born to be mild like the first suburban child
Born to be king of the really boring things

My life consecrated by the Vogue year book
My style dictated by the Rick Astley look
I drive a car but I can't read a book
I don't eat meat except for a little bit of chook

Born to be mild like the first Mcdonalds child
Born to be king like that fist Mcdonalds child
I have a dream
Corporate martial law
I have a dream
Corporate martial law

My heart controlled by the share outlook
My veins a pumping with the cash I took
I can't afford the credit I book
Out upon the damage I look

Do not attempt to think or depression may occur
Do not attempt to think

Born to be mild like the first McDonalds child
Born to be king of the really empty things
Born to be mild like the first McReagen child
Born to be king of that overfed empty grin
Born to be mild like the first freemarket child
Born to be king of the endless buying binge

My times reflected by the pills I took
My comfort created by the conscience I shook
I can't believe the saftey of my tiny little nook
I won't leave it ever not even for a look

Dedicated to all my friends and the people I know whose lives are steeped in consumerism, buttressed by iPods, PDAs, home entertainment systems, trendy TV series, annual vacations, Bose audio products, safe jazz music and a family car (yeah, a Black Subaru or Mitsubishi Lancer Evo).
