King Customer

lyrics

So you want to be -
I mean it's not too clear to me -
do you want to be
apart of an economy?

Can you afford to be?
Do you spend unavoidably?
Can you afford to be?
How much would you pay me?

Do we live unavoidably?
Do we live quite legitimately?
Will we know unavoidably?
Gotta make sure we get some money.

Yeah, king customer,
you know you can always be right.
King customer -
come take some guarantees.

Buying a product’s not all bad,
yeah, sit on my throne.
Being a product’s not all bad.
O please legitimate me.

Do you love our logo?
Are we embodied perfectly?
Go draw our logo
everywhere you see.
Gimme customer loyalty
everywhere I see.

I wanna see your face on a dollar bill.
Maybe I’ll see my face on some coins - just some coins.
That can be some power, real powerful.
We can control what we buy, yeah, come and buy.
Guarantees, guarantees, oh don’t you love guarantees?
No, I don’t know how my satisfaction can be guaranteed.
Wait, money in itself is not anything,
but without it I am so worthless, yeah, we’re pretty worthless.
Ok, Ok, it’s just a symbol.
So then what’s it stand for - is it love or something else?
What do you stand for - is it love or something else?
What do we stand for - is it love or something else?
So you want to be -
no one asked it of me,
and aren’t we all already
apart of economies?

So, king customer
are you fully satisfied?
Yeah, king customer,
you got your crown in a plastic bag.

Attention and money -
can we ask that of thee?
Attention and money -
are they scarce commodities?

Do we play legitimately
without a generous fee?
It’s just a little funny
how much we need your money.

Conductors Chicago, Illinois

"Mona tried to tell me
To stay away from the train line
She said that all the railroad men
Just drink up your blood like wine
An’ I said, 'Oh, I didn’t know that
But then again, there’s only one I’ve met
An’ he just smoked my eyelids
An’ punched my cigarette' " ... more
