C G F# Why would we want anymore?
Man is good, man is
great, this they will tell you.
He's given us
everything we'll ever need:
Plenty of stuff to do
for the good folk,
money and junk to
satisfy greed.
Movie stars, smokey
bars, the world wide web.
Disneyland, Chevy
vans, my waterbed.
Magazines and diamond
rings for every woman in the world.
What else would we
ever need?
My job is good, my
job is great, or so they tell me.
Making sure the
mainframe stays on line:
We're assembling
products to meet the demand of
people who seem to
only waste time.
Pac man, Pokemon,
computer chips.
Make up, fake cups
for plastic tits.
Magizines and beauty
queens for every man in the world.
What else would we
ever need?
This city's good,
this city's great, or so I've heard.
Consumanator culture
which won't be beat:
Midnight marketplace
will sell anything to a
high class player who
is up on Wall Street.
Stocks and bonds
can't go wrong when you play the game.
Dow Jones skull and
bones, it's all the same.
The good life, the
great life for every fool in the world.
What else would we
ever need?
Life is good. Life is great we all agree
There ain't no other place that I wanna be.
Whatever the reason we are all here
often I wonder, which leads me to fear:
what's gonna happen when we all want it all,
pavin' our way to the new super mall?
Where ever I go it all seems the same.
