lyrics

DISCUSSING CAPITALISM WITH SANTA CLAUS

the devil exchanged his fork and his tail
for Nikes and French fries and sodas and lattes

Azazel he swapped his claws and his horns
for dumb phones and oil wars and sweatshops all around the world

what would Jesus buy ?
we’re killing the planet one purchase at a time

what would Jesus buy ?
we’re slaving our own selves one item at a time

religion exchanged damnation and hell
for junk thoughts and mcjobs and targets and markets

the almighty exchanged all torments and flames
for logos and networks and targets and markets

what would Jesus buy ?

what would Satan buy ?
we’re killing the planet one purchase at a time

what would Satan buy ?
we’re slaving our own selves one item at a time

you’re not what you buy
after shopping, there is a life

what would Jesus buy ?

what would Satan buy ?

what would Santa buy ?
what would Santa buy ?
