Consumer visits the game playing of a couple who are struggling to survive enmeshment and ingratiation.
lyrics
Consumer.
I'll be your way home,
I'll be your royal road tripper.
I'll be your head lights,
I'll be the reason you forget.
You consumer, such a user.
Go on and take your body and move it.
You know sooner, life will moon ya.
You say you won't feel like you're a loser.
I'll be your pay phone,
I'll be the call you'll never get.
I'll be here all night,
I'll be the meat that you'll regret.
You know it ain't my fault,
You let the harm in here.
You know, ain't my fault,
You never bothered to read the rules.
I'll be your halo,
I'll be the hole in your suitcase.
I'll be your whole life,
I"ll be the season that you'll detest.
You consumer, such a user.
Go on and take your body and move it.
You know sooner, life will moon ya.
Say you won't feel like you're a loser.
You know it ain't my fault,
You let the harm in here.
You know, ain't my fault,
You never bothered to read the rules.
You know it ain't my fault,
You let the harm in here.
You know, ain't my fault,
That you preferred to play the fool.
You consumer, such a user.
Go on and take your body and move it.
You know sooner, life will moon ya.
Say you won't feel like you're a loser.
