MEMENTO 2006
There are bargains in the stores
Services and Goods
People shufflin their feet
People sleepin in their shoes
But theres a warninG sign
on the aisle ahead
Theres a lot of people sayin
This offers for a limited time only
Dont feel like Satan
but I am to them
So I try to buy my way out
any way my credit card can
chorus

I see a woman in the night
With a baby in her hand
Under an old street light
Near a garbage can
Now she puts the kid away
and she goin to the flea market
She hates her drapes
and how they color her living room
Theres one more kid
that will never get to wear Gucci
Never tell time with a Rolex
never gET TO be a Gap kid
chorus
chorus
 

Keep on buyiN in the free world
Keep on buyin in the free world
Keep on buyin in the free world
Keep on buyin in the free world
Keep on buyin in the free world
 

CHORUS

  

We give thousandS air mile points 
To the homeless man
We got a kinder, gentler
Machine gun hand
We got department stores
anD Non shafing toilet paper
Got styrofoam in our boxes
for the ozone layer
Got a man of the people
says keep PROFIT marginS afloat
Got fuel to burn up
got roads to drive on
chorus
We did not see it happen
though it was on TV
Our way of life
built on democracy and freedom
Turning into a fight
for capitalism and free trade
Patriots drafted a new act
Cause WITH that darn constitution
tHEY JUST COULDNT fight
Anyway those human rights
What have they done for you lately
They sure didnt help
keep the World Trade Centre standing
chorus
 They started a war
to end the terror
For this war to be won
Civilians did a patriot act
An act of surrenderin
their constitutional right
Ask not what a government can do for you
Cause criticism helps the terrorists
Citizens reaffirm their approval
By driving SUVs
And exercising their right to vote
on Survivor and American idol

chorus

 
First they went to Africa
for the slave trade
Then they went to Latin America
with Low Intensity Conflict
They went to the Middle East
with Full Spectrum Dominance
They just came at America
with the Patriot Act
bUT they wont be comin for you
iF yOU, Keep on buyin in the free world

Keep on buyin in the free world
Keep on buyin in the free world
Keep on buyin in the free world
Keep on buyin in the free world
Keep on buyin in the free world
 

When Will the Terror End          Vote Me Off of this Island
