Crass - Buy Now Pay As You Go Lyrics
Buy now, pay as you goBuy now, say helloYou can put a mortgage on your lifeTo enter Shoppers' ParadiseA trade-in for your dignityA lovely colour console TVTo watch and cherish as the days slip byAnd dream of the things that money can buyBrushed chrome shit, plastic crapMy life and my vision is worth more than thatPlate glass ghetto, shopping spreeI'm no *****ing commodityLusting for objects, white wall refrigeratorCut off your fingers and buy a vibratorGet them while it lasts, your time is running outIt's a new mink coat, that's what life's all aboutA new tank, a new bomb, awaits you in the storeIs life all that shallow that you're reaching out for more?Start planning now for a family plotA satin-lined bunker where your corpses can rotWell there's nothing for sale here, no day-glo goreAnd I ain't no waxed-up showroom whoreI don't need carrots in front of my eyesMan made pre-fab, polyester liesSexy glossy adverts left on my matI live with my needs, I don't need thatI Don't need a yacht to take a cruiseDon't need a telephone in the looWon't barter my soul for a rip-joint saleExcess is just another nouveau jailDon't want to grow fat off the fat of the landOr to choke on the greed of public commandThirty years with one foot in the gravePossession junkie, consumer slaveIf money buys freedom it's already spentYour object's the subject of my contemptBuy now, pay as you goBuy now, say helloBye byeBye bye
