Affluenza Songtext
von Eureka Machines

Buy and die ′cause everybody's at it
Flying high with shiny plastic assets
The suits and schemes sucking out the life
Human beings twist around the knife
Eyes to prize to hypnotise the masses

Too late, you′ve got infection
I'm holding all the medicine

Affluenza
It's a growing curse on us all
Affluenza
It′s an illness and it′s real
Affluenza
This disease will kill us all
Affluenza
The cure you take won't make you feel


Stuff myself with more and more fluff
Bluff myself I′ll never ever have enough
Animals burnt by bigger brands
Greed and guilt limp hand in hand
Zero times zero plus zero equals zero

Too late, you lost the bet
Present your pound of flesh

Affluenza
It's a growing curse on us all
Affluenza
It′s an illness and it's real
Affluenza
This disease will kill us all
Affluenza
The cure you take won′t make you feel

Homogenise my life supplies
With tasteless polystyrene highs
All factory farmed, unfairly fed
By handmade men in unmade beds
And clothe me with the Xerox skin
By indiviuals all my twin
A uniform so monochrome
We're wingless worker drones


What now we call consumption seems
To redefine this gluttony
It's reinforced by counterblast
And public service narrowcast
If inspiration hits the nation
Hand to me in all elation
The corpses of the corporations
And bodies of the banks

Affluenza
It′s a growing curse on us all
Affluenza
It′s an illness and it's real
Affluenza
This disease will kill us all
Affluenza
The cure you take won′t make you feel
