Consumer Wonderland…
Some of us still don’t have copies of this song, so here goes.
Consumer Wonderland
(tune of: Winter Wonderland) (words by Erica Avery)
The TV’s on / are you watching?
Another product / that they’re hawking
one more thing you need
to make life complete
Welcome to Consumer Wonderland
In the stores / you will hear it
“Pricey gifts / show Christmas spirit”
That’s what they call it
to get to your wallet
Welcome to Consumer Wonderland
At the mall we can go out shopping
and buy lots of stuff we can’t afford
we’ll have lots of fun with all our new toys
until we realize that we’re still bored
When you shop / ain’t it thrilling
Un—til / you get the billing
the money you still owe/ the stuff broke long ago
Welcome to Consumer Wonderland.
