Oh, Magic Ocean

Magic Ocean


Magic ocean of lies and deceit,

magic ocean, what a treat.

One million deadly dollars,

one million deadly ads.


When were we left to control,

when did the last good days roll.


Sorry to see you go,

this is the way we win.


We won't let you live,

we want to live.

Give me more,

give me a little death.


Sweet swim in an ocean;

an ocean of dollar bills.


The money stopped smelling,

it's lost it's taste;

now left is lust,

it's all just dust.


---


But you didn't know...

Yet. Or did you?


How much more can you handle?

How much more can fit?


Can you bloat it?

You sure can't tote it.


Your collector's collecting,

your birds are singing.

Time to sing a ballad,

time to stop the ringing.


When did I get lost?


The past is in a frost.


You had a disease,

they had the cure.


You needed nothing,

when they needed more.


When you wanted fun,

they said let's get the job done.


More than you wanted,

with more there's always more.


---


Sometimes I dream of nothing.


Nothing, is where the dreams come.


Get rid of it all.

An empty, dusty hall.


Is all you'll need,

not their life of greed.


Clean the dust,

no more lust.


Do you see?

Me?

Not them.

Good.


The want will pass;

faster than that kiss of ass.


Your affluenza has gone.


Have you found your ocean?


Jump in the deep end.


Feel the feel.


Taste the taste.


With no more haste.


It's now your magic ocean.


Magic ocean.


It will always be magic.
