What's it gonna take
|
to slow us down
|
to let the silence spin us around?
|
What's it gonna take
|
to drop this town?
|
We've been spinning at the speed of sound.
|
|
Stepping out of those convenience stores
|
what could we want but more more more?
|
From the third world
|
to the corporate core
|
we are a symphony of modern humanity
|
|
If we're adding to the noise
|
turn off this song
|
If we're adding to the noise
|
turn off your stereo, radio, video
|
|
I dont know
|
what they're gonna think of next
|
genetic engineers of the most high tech
|
A couple new ways
|
to fall into debt
|
I'm a nervous wreck but I'll bet
|
that that T.V. set
|
tells us what we've wanted to hear
|
But none of these sound bites
|
are coming in clear
|
From the third world to the corporate ear
|
we are the symphony of modern humanity.
