Epissdumbology lyrics

(featuring Steven Neufield of "Hey Mike")

Give me headlines that grab
And shocking detail
Hide the facts in section E
Where no one will see
I can't tell which is news
And which is retail.
It all looks the same to me
And it's said with urgency
So it must be true and you must
Accept it from their point of view
You better hop on board or miss the
Grand parade...

(CHORUS 1)
And that's how consent is made, from
The manifold masses
So long as the man gets paid
No one will question
Offering thrills in trade
And that's how money's made

Who can tell between fast
And rash assumption
When the world comes down the wire.
Those who propagate fear
Promote mass consumption
All the publishers desire
So the proof is not required
'cause if you don't think it's true then
There must be something screwed up
With you
Because everyone else has joined the
Big charade...

(CHORUS 2)
And that's how consent is made
From the millions of morons
So long as the bill gets paid
No one will question
Offering thrills in trade
And that's how money's made

We don't need an excuse anymore
We can bend half truths and fabricate
A war
If the details don't pan out
We can smash all those who doubt
So it must be true and you must bow
Down to the Red, White and Blue
You better hop on board and join the
Great crusade...

(CHORUS 2)
And that's how money's made (3X)

That's how money is made
I don't want to pay the price
It gets paid
It's a downward spiral. (repeat)
