about

Hell to me is the nightmare of an endless concrete freeway lined with identical chain restaurants where we all drive in our giant identical SUV's while listening to the same cookie cutter music on the radio. Where does it lead? Nowhere. Then I wake up or do I?

lyrics

It's all been said before

It's all been done before

Still we're all looking for more

Of the same old thing

There's a million places to eat

Just like the one across the street

And all the people that I meet

They wear the same old thing

Same old lies

Telling us what to buy

Same old cheats

Who poison what we eat

Same old laws

That put money in their paws

Same bored masses

Who keep sitting on their asses

It's the same old thing

We do it to ourselves

Then we blame someone else

We think it's just a game

It's the same old thing

We'll buy our happiness

Who cares about the rest

We call this progress

It's the same old thing

Same old thing

Nothing new to me

There are people who remember

How it used to be

When we wanted to be free

Of the same old thing

She has now joined forces with the very aptly named Savants! ... more
