Lyrics
Once long ago there was a time
In what now seems a distant land
Each small boutique
Was precious and unique
Because every little thing was made by hand
Then there came a revolution
The progress of production was it's aim
Now instead of one there are many
And each costs just a penny
But every single one is just the same.
Now there's a....
Starbucks on every bloody corner
McDonalds on everybody's street
There's White castle, Wendy's then Wal mart
And then it all repeats
If you're the kind that looks down on the masses
Even for you there's a feint
Get some New Rocks or a pair of Docs
Put just like those who ain't.
And that is how (Tell us how!)
It came to be (How can this be?!)
After two long centuries
That in the name (Whats in the name!?)
Of human greed
The Industrial Revolution fixed everything for me.
And so now if one does well with the business
They open two more and then three
They buy in bulk get big massive hulks
At which point it's nearly free
As they grow bigger their prices grow lower
Until they become a chain
The smaller stores all shutter their doors
And buckle 'neath the strain.
And that is how (Tell us how!)
It came to be (How can this be?!)
After two long centuries
That in the name (Whats in the name!?)
Of human greed
The Industrial Revolution fixed everything for everyone
It came into our lives and gave us uniformity
By taking choice away from you and me.
And that is how (Tell us how!)
It came to be (How can this be?!)
After two long centuries
That in the name (Whats in the name!?)
Of human greed (Human greed!)
The Industrial Revolution fixed everything for every bloody one
It came into our lives and gave us uniformity
By taking choice away from you
(Taking choice away from me!)
Taking choice away from you and me!
And now the machines are working tirelessly
Through all night and day
Making garbage of our image for a world that's "Made our way"
They won't stop! Until every inch from Puru to Bombay
Looks like a Mall like the U.S. of A.
