Correct Charlie And The Propaganda Myth Machine

Lyrics:
If every child chased dreams of societal reorganization In place of sweet wrappers and escape, Then we would see mr. Cadbury's enlightened industrialism For what it really fucking is: Social morphine? We'd have ourselves a pre-school army. Walt disney is pushing social and sexual hierarchy, My bed-time stories like a gmtv gomulka. Slumbering in my jimmy-jammies, My wondrous imagination long since closed and put away. Willy wonka was a capitalist confidence trickster, A poster boy for neo-liberalism, a full-stop on revolt. And the bfg a propagandist for an unaccountable regime, Orwell's vision with a wrinkled face. Hold out the arm and quiet the voice. My first macdonald's visit a vaccination, Like the time my parents took me to the school / clinic, And handed me over to the teacher / nurse / whatever. I too got sucked in by the myth machine. Unattainable, but I just wish we weren't so fucking mindless. Drowned in a recurring nightmare of causal influence. A little more suspicion in our fairy tales please. Mum and dad, i'm sorry, I won't do what enid blyton told me. Our jealousy at their opportunity: The once weak will one day rule this world. The monsters underneath the bed are merely jaded failings.
