WE ALL MAKE THEM, THEY ARE FABULOUS, THEY DEFY THE IMAGINATION, CHALLENGE CREDIBILITY!
AND MOST OF ALL, THEY ARE CONVENIENT, EVERYONE KNOWS THEM WITHOUT THINKING!
THINGS LIKE, 'WE'RE BUSY'
THINGS LIKE, 'THEY ASKED FOR IT'
THINGS LIKE, 'WHO COULD HAVE KNOWN?'
THINGS LIKE, 'IT'S NOT OUR FAULT'
THINGS LIKE, 'Hush now baby, baby don't you cry
Mama's gonna make all of your
Nightmares come true
Mama's gonna put all of her fears into you
Mama's gonna keep you right here
Under her wing
she won't let you fly but she might let you sing
Mama will keep baby cosy and warm
Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe
Of course Mama's gonna help build the wall'
I REFER TO THE 'COMFORTABLY NUMB' VIDEO, THE 'MOTHER' VIDEO, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN, GOD
FORBID ANYONE SHOULD INTERRUPT OUR BEING 'COMFORTABLE' OR 'NUMB'
THAT IS ABSOLUTELY THE LAST STRAW, THE SIN OF SINS, OVER-THE-TOP,
WE HATE ALL THE BAD THINGS IN THIS WORLD, BUT REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THEM,
CHANGE, IT'S TOO MUCH WORK,
IT'S FOR OTHERS TO DO, YADA-YADA
COMFORT, CONVENIENCE, HYPOCRISY, THE NORM
THINGS WE ARE, THINGS WE HIDE BEHIND, THINGS WE LOVE, THE STATISTIC IS 'THE MOST HYPOCRITICAL GENERATION EVER'
YES, WELCOME TO THE MACHINE
WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET
YOU WILL REAP WHAT YOU SOW,
ETC, TILL ETERNITY, THAT'S WHY CHANGE IS A CHIMERA, A FIGMENT OF YOUR IMAGINATION
GOOD LUCK, KIDS, PLEASE DON'T LET ME INTERRUPT YOU!
HOPE WHAT I SAY IS NOT TOO COMPLICATED FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND, TOO MUCH FOR YOUR LITTLE
BRAIN, OR TOO 'UNBELIEVABLE', ERM, I MEAN, OVER-THE-TOP!
YOU KNOW, 'THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS'
YOU KNOW, 'TALK IS CHEAP'
YOU KNOW, 'DO UNTO OTHERS. . .'
AND OTHER UNMENTIONABLES. . .
