lyrics

WORK-SONG

Do you want a happy life? Then prepare for death
Do you want to die in peace? I hope your heir is set
Do you want to build? then you should build a mansion
The mortgage will be mortal and your story ends here.

Bei what you should, a working bee
Think what you should, don´t learn something new
Be grateful for the chance to serve
Be content for working and shuffling and making and

Do you want to be something? The you should found a bank.
Do you want to earn more?
Do you want to create? Create a tax loophole
Do you want to find the reason?

Be productive, cheat the tax bureau,
be creative, move money back and forth
Be healthy, don´t call in sick
Be relevant, earn more and more and more

And we´re dancing and dancing ´round the holy calf
Work - Buy - Make more money
We don´t think about the other half
Mammon is our idol

Consuming gives you inner peace
Emptiness can be filled by shopping
But searching and not finding
will destroy you in the end
Don´t search, don´t search,
Obey, and add, and subtract,
and contract, and don´t act,
but tesseract the unsocial product
