Not very long ago, America introduced Pepsi to the Soviet Union.
"You can have it, (you can have it), right now"
"You can have it, (you can have it), right now"
In what it may be just a coincidence, a lot of refreshing changes have been taking place, ever since
"It makes your advertising dreams come true"
Pepsi, a generation ahead...
But can they really get inside my head?
As long as you keep an open mind.
Here they all are.
Here they all are.
Here they all are.

-They do harm?? -(Don't...)
All of which are ... are others
We do have possibilities, stopping this, and as I said the word (said the word) stopping, I realize: That's it...
You know if there's a message in my book is...
Can I finish my story, please?
Yeah, please, go ahead.
-Ok. We're fat, we're overfed.
Stop, stop building cars, stop buying cars,

We can control the corporations all we have to do is stop buying what it is they're selling
Cheap reads, toothpastes and cigarrettes

Put in the cereals too.
It's re... It's very simple, I mean, actually they need us

We want: Mutable key
...by print
We want good clothes
Assaulted by radio
(Don't... fuck with me fellas!!)
We want - We want people who like us
They're... they're just ripping off everybody
So you're philosophical...
So, what will happen is, like 50% of the people in this country...
We do not want:
...if they just said
What!
No. We don't wanna buy... we don't need your cars.

(Don't... fuck with me fellas!!)
Eh-eh... And if all of the real spiritual religious leaders in this country said: That's really what we gotta do...
So you're philosophical...
Bite back!
(Don't... fuck with me fellas!!)
Bite back!
The only thing that's gonna solve the problem is to actually stop what it is, is causing it
(Don't... fuck with me fellas!!)
We can control the corporations all we have to do is stop buying what it is they're selling
Bite back!
(Don't... fuck with me fellas!!)
The only thing that's gonna solve the problem is to actually stop what it is, is causing it
Bite...
(Don't... fuck with me fellas!!)

Right now. 30 million dollars a day spent in a desperate atempt to buy brands a bit of space in the memory watch? of the consumer
"You can have it, (you can have it), right now"
(Don't... fuck with me fellas!!)

(Don't... fuck with me fellas!!)
This is the restless American economy
Bite... So...

It is also economic liberty and once economic liberty is abridged or destroyed all other liberty is abridged or destroyed.
Eh-eh...
"Power over a man's subsistence..." said Alexander Hamilton "... is power over his will."
Eh-eh...
Eh-eh...
Bite back!
Eh-eh... And it's like an intelectual game to continually ask what the solution is...
(Don't...!)
When you're not willing to... to put it into effect. I mean, you're... you're really not...
It's very... it's very frightening.
That's what my dad would've call real truth in advertising
(Don't... fuck with me fellas!!)
We have never seen such a thing happen, instead the campain continues to flourish, like a great tree spreading its branches and reaching for the sun.
And year after year, rich and - people see to continue to sit down to the earth - in new sales and costumers.
(Don't... fuck with me fellas!!)
So you're philosophical...

Join them...
Put 'em in a big piece of tape is what we say...
Oh...
(Yeah, you got that wrong it's ok... i think that's fine)
