CONSUMER PRIDE

i wana be your delicate consumer i wana cure the doctor,i wana grow
the planet with your tokens of grace,i dreamed she stood at her cash
register a poet on the keys,the laughing behind my back marked down
to a smile to my face,i need your thirty day miracle and your ten cent
never,i hear your voice everywhere the radio t.v. and i know what's
real,but i try to fathom you and you just say i am that i am,you must
know what i think because you tell me what to feel *i wana be your
customer but i'm scared you'll make me pay,if i buy it all will you
promise not to take it all away i've got a picture of you stuck in the
corner of my mirror,but i don't like it there because when i look at it i
can't help but see me,but i only hate myself as much as your love will
allow,and without your love to define my hate what would i be,if you can't give it away you'll have to sell it,and if i can't afford it than i'll
have to buy two,you see i'd do anything to make me yours,i believe
your lies because i'd rather be real than true *i wana be your customer
but it's such a high price,if your the religion am i the sacrifice every
time i see your face light up a billboard i get the gold rush blues,but i
know you want me i know you need me,you took my reason to believe
but gave me a reason to be,but it just makes me hungry the way that
you feed me,i really want to put my faith in you but it seems to
easy,and the best cheater's in the world are the ones who put you
totally at ease,and there may be a wolf under that designer wool,the
perfect disguise of aiming to please *i wana be your customer but i've
got my pride,and i've seen the light that you have lied.
