Larry and His Flask - Call It What You Will

CALL IT WHAT YOU WILL

Come get your hands on it brother
The chance won't come again
Follow your neighbors lead
Get everything a man could need
With a card in the palm of your hand
Come get your hands on it mother
Everything must go
Fur coats and diamond rings and giant plasma T.V. screens
You owe it to yourself don't you know
So put your faith in the plastic my friend
Your dreams are a swipe away
Don't you worry where the bounty comes from
If you do it might haunt you someday
When the sun comes up and it's burning in the sky
Rest assured that it's dark on the other side
The stores are boarding up their windows
As the shopping malls cave in
Everything in chaos now someone screaming
Tell me how can we spend our money my friend
I tell them go build a castle
Lock it up real tight
With nothing left to consume
Can't you see we're clearly doomed
The world just might end here tonight
Recession depression call it what you will
We're the victims of our own greed
With cheaters for leaders
Our own empty dreams
Will come back as nightmares indeed
But there's a clearing in the fog
That might just be hope up ahead
If we hurry there's a chance
We could make it through to the end
So tell me my friends
Was it worth what you spent
The sun comes up and it's burning in the sky
Rest assured that it's dark on the other side
