The Shell Corporation - Not Me Lyrics
And so we’ll sing, sing ourselves to sleepSecure in the beliefThat you have all the answersI was raised on white suburbian mythologyOf rising tides and lifting boats and opportunityPretty soon I realized that I’d been told a lieAnd moneyed corporate interests were robbing us all blindStill so many 99s refuse to pay attentionContent to let their lullabies lull them into submissionAnd so you’ll sing, sing yourselves to sleepSecure in the belief, that you have all the answersAnd you’ll suspend, suspend your disbeliefAnd you will soundly sleep, untroubled by the answersThe answers aren’t easy but the problem’s all too clearAnd we will keep on shouting ‘til you listen, ‘til you hearYou can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drinkAnd you can lead a man to knowledge, but you cannot make him thinkDo you still believe the system works for you and me? Not Me!And who here still believes the rule of law applies equally? Not Me!
