RX Bandits - Newsstand Rock (Exposition)

Now America's got a brand new war
Can anybody tell me what we're fighting for?
Time to manufacture the illusion of safety
Don't fear, just consume to uphold the economy

Yeah, we always buy everything that they're sellin'
Everything that they're sellin'

Payin' for the bombs that fall on our children
Now we're headed for our own demise
Dreaming of another mushroom cloud horizon
And that's the bottom line

So it's time to cancel my subscription
I just can't stomach any more of their lies
Violence equals violence and it's no solution
And that's the bottom line (yeah, that's the bottom line)

Now turn on the radio and hear what it's sayin'
Another hollow candy-coated melody about nothing
Easier to sell it, don't require you to think
Dumbed down drool, a facade success

Yeah, we're still buyin' everything that they're sellin'
Everything that they're sellin'

Now I'm looking for the truth and solid meaning
So I can scrape the glass off both of my eyes
Stuffed to the gills with a false sense of substance
And now I realize

So it's time to cancel my subscription
I just can't stomach any more of the lies
Wealth, the spectacle of a greedy solution
And that's the bottom line
Oh, the bottom line

(That's the bottom line)

Now I'm not buyin' anything that they're sellin'
Not givin' in this time, this time, this time

Payin' for the bombs that fall on our children
Now we're headed for our own demise
Dreaming of another mushroom cloud horizon
And that's the bottom line

So it's time to cancel my subscription
I just can't stomach any more of the lies
Violence equals violence and it's no solution
And that's the bottom line
Oh, it's the bottom line
Yeah, it's the bottom line tonight
