Ember Swift - Include My Food Lyrics
"Are you hungry?" he asked "Care to join me in a bite of thought?"I looked and the table and said, "thank-you for your kindness, but really, I'm not.""C'mon, let's chat, 'chew the fat' with me!Let's debate the ethics on our plate; Let's disagree!Aren't you going to tell me how everything I eatis derived from misery and cruelty?Aren't you going to tell me about the contents of meat?All the pesticides and the hormones?C'mon Ember, let's disagree. C'mon Ember, let's disagree!"We pick our politics like we choose the food to fill our stomachsParting with money is just playing with fateI choose to start with the food upon my plateI really sincerely don't mean to be rudeBut my politics INCLUDE MY FOOD.Seems we all live in a mist of mediocrityNever ever thinking that we can have an impactBut, it's a fact that we as people are the very pulse of the economy.Everything we purchase, invest in or consumehas the power to demystify and to perpetuate this capitalist gloomBecause everything that we buy is attached to a company with a policyabout production, employment, government or the environment (to name a few) Stiltwalking (2002)Song titles:Include My Food (Listen!)Ten Feet Tall (Listen!)StiltwalkingRubber BulletsLick Your Lips (Listen!)Boinked (The Bride) (Listen!)Competing?
