lyrics

Puppets impeccably dressed, the majority blessed
Assemble on the floor to wag their jaws and
The ticker tape words issue from their mouths
Transcribed verbatim from the company meetings
There's money to be made!
A simple mantra for simple minds
There's money to be made!

But there's never enough
In the trough, never enough
To slake an endless need
Never enough in the trough, never enough
To slake and endless greed

Future's rosy, profits have never been higher
Projections on the rise
In the corner office things are looking bright
But down at the bottom Mainstreet's burning
Down at the bottom it's the same old shit
Just a different day
And the Final Notices piled up on the table
And posted on the door

It's never enough
In the trough, never enough
To slake an endless need
Never enough in the trough, never enough
To slake and endless greed

Never enough
