Dogma by KMFDM

ALL WE WANT IS A HEADRUSH
ALL WE WANT IS TO GET OUT OF OUR SKIN FOR A WHILE
WE HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE ANYTHING
ANYTHING WE WANT ANYWAY...

WE USED TO HATE PEOPLE
NOW WE JUST MAKE FUN OF THEM
IT'S MORE EFFECTIVE THAT WAY

WE DON'T LIVE
WE JUST SCRATCH ON DAY TO DAY
WITH NOTHING BUT MATCHBOOKS AND
SARCASM IN OUR POCKETS
AND ALL WE'RE WAITING FOR
IS FOR SOMETHING WORTH WAITING FOR

LET'S ADMIT AMERICA GETS THE CELEBRITIES WE DESERVE
LET'S STOP SAYING "DON'T QUOTE ME"
BECAUSE IF NO ONE QUOTES YOU
YOU PROBABLY HAVEN'T SAID A THING WORTH SAYING

WE NEED SOMETHING TO KILL THE PAIN
OF ALL THAT NOTHING INSIDE

WE ALL JUST WANT TO DIE A LITTLE BIT

WE FEAR THAT POP-CULTURE
IS THE ONLY KIND OF CULTURE WE'RE EVER GOING TO HAVE

WE WANT TO STOP READING MAGAZINES
STOP WATCHING TV
STOP CARING ABOUT HOLLYWOOD
BUT WE'RE ADDICTED TO THE THINGS WE HATE

WE DON'T RUN WASHINGTON AND NO ONE REALLY DOES

ASK NOT WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR YOUR COUNTRY
ASK WHAT YOUR COUNTRY DID TO YOU

THE ONLY REASON YOU'RE STILL ALIVE IS BECAUSE SOMEONE
HAS DECIDED TO LET YOU LIVE

WE OWE SO MUCH MONEY WE'RE NOT BROKE WE'RE BROKEN
WE'RE SO POOR WE CAN'T EVEN PAY ATTENTION

SO WHAT DO YOU WANT

YOU WANT TO BE FAMOUS AND RICH AND HAPPY
BUT YOU'RE TERRIFIED YOU HAVE NOTHING TO OFFER THIS WORLD
NOTHING TO SAY AND NO WAY TO SAY IT
BUT YOU CAN SAY IT IN THREE LANGUAGES

YOU ARE MORE THAN THE SUM OF WHAT YOU CONSUME

DESIRE IS NOT AN OCCUPATION

YOU ARE ALTERNATELY THRILLED AND DESPERATE
SKYHIGH AND FUCKED

LET'S STOP PRAYING FOR SOMEONE
TO SAVE US AND START SAVING OURSELVES

LET'S STOP THIS AND START OVER

LET'S GO OUT

LET'S KEEP GOING

THIS IS YOUR LIFE
THIS IS YOUR FUCKING LIFE

WE NEED SOMETHING TO KILL
THE PAIN OF ALL THAT NOTHING INSIDE

QUIT WHINING YOU HAVEN'T DONE
ANYTHING WRONG BECAUSE FRANKLY
YOU HAVEN'T DONE MUCH OF ANYTHING

SOMEONE'S WRITING DOWN YOUR MISTAKES

SOMEONE'S DOCUMENTING YOUR DOWNFALL
