I've heard about virgin scenery
somewhere beyond the machinery
but I'm fine right here
won't let it get to me
I have no goals and I make no plans
I fan the fire with one night stands
where I leave no hope
and will suffer no demands
I laugh a lot
and I sample and I sing
I feed on empty hearts
but that doesn't mean a thing
I wish I could sample all I see
that everybody would come to me
with their friendly smiles
and their generosity
I believe that I am what I eat
that I can taste everything I meet
and I'll drink to that
for the world is my treat
I sense a lot
and I quiver and I sting
I don't know who I am
but that doesn't mean a thing
It's a consumer's paradise
it is my dream and if you're nice
enough to feel it
you will never quite repeal it
I know
it's an incredible mistake
to try to fight it or to fake
us out and leave it
cause we'll never quite believe
you would
try or ever count on getting through
if what you plan and hope to do
is find some reason
in this all consuming season
we brought
to get you firmly by the throat
and we do not even remotely
care you think
we have served it up
and you will drink
You pray a lot
and you grovel and you cling
You say you've had enough
but that doesn't mean a thing
