Abraham Cloud - Corporate Wars lyrics

Daddy don't drive pretty full length cars no more He lost both his arms in the big time corporate wars Your sister was really quite naïve To think he was a holy man Daddy raised his children to believe economical dreams When prices started fallin' that's when Daddy got down on his knees the neighbors are all very kind they sometimes go for walks with his mind Your sister never witnessed a happier sight the man she loved was too drunk to fight and he was singin' look at the bright side, look at the fun you can have but don't look around too much cause it might bring you down You say you got a picture of the trip you took to Africa When Daddy bought a village, an advantage in the corporate war The natives even smiled when the flash went off They liked the way he paid his bills The natives loved to dance to the sleazy sub bohemian curl When daddy couldn't buy it he decided to give it a whirl Your sister never witnessed a happier sight the man she loved was too drunk to fight Its good to see you talking to the people who still love you again We almost thought we lost you to the stiff-neck -corporate men They always brought you home when they'd had enough Funny how the good life gets rough
