lyrics

The sports and the Kardashians
The width of your blue jeans
Its all there to distract you
The pop culture machine
The sooner you realize it
Sooner you’ll get clean
They don’t tell you it’s a nightmare
They sell it as a dream

Rearranging deck chairs,
while the iceberg gleams
better take it slow
but the captain says full steam
one more episode
one more crazy scheme
they don’t tell you it’s a nightmare
they sell it as a dream

The forces are all at work
Counting out the beans
You think you got it made
You don’t got the ways and means
We’re played against each other
On imaginary teams
They don’t tell you it’s a nightmare
They sell it as a dream
