about

Overburdened by mass consumerism, mass media, mass political deception:

lyrics

I don’t need your skin-deep, on-the-cheap, bullshit fairy tales
I don’t need your phoney empathy or your bribes
What I need instead is socially-led autonomy -
My revolt against your Age of Plenty calls

I don’t need your Monkey sneering at my philosophies
I don’t need your media run by billionaires
What I need instead is tolerance-led, and rational thinking -
My revolt against this Age of Ty-Rants calls

Bang the drum

Reality - it does not serve our purpose
So bombard their world with lies disguised as truths
It’s what they want to hear, they’ll want to hear
And we can fool them ‘til the votes come home

I don’t need your mass consumerist any more
What I need instead is peace in my head - and sanity!
My revolt against this Age of Plenty calls

Bang the drum.

A work of considerable power and subtlety. Certainly a grower but I was hooked on first listen and it seems to improve on subsequent plays. Well done to everyone involved and good luck for the future, hopefully a long and successful future. simon1956smith
