Where The Humans Eat

Where The Humans Eat

Verse 1

This is where the humans eat

They take advantage of the buffet

One serving of CNN

Two plates of The New York Times

This is where they come to feast

It begins when they wake up in the morning

They have a bowl of Katie Couric

Three slices of The Washington Post

A sprinkle of The Drudge Report

This is where they fill their stomachs

Bridge 1

On the weekends, they don't hold back

Wal-Mart rolls back sound judgement

Sears captures their attention

The ringing sound you hear is 'Ka-Ching!"

Verse 2

This is where they stuff their faces

Consuming as much as they can afford to

More than one billion have been served

They never close - no wonder they're still cooking

Profits increase quarter after quarter

It's hard to choose between Honda and Ford

But when you're Warren Buffet it makes no difference

Thousands work in drug marts

Even though they tell us that drugs are bad

This is where they smell, chew and swallow

Bridge 2

Winners convinces them to spend

So they won't end up like others

If you make your bed

Then you'll be forced to sleep in it

Verse 3

This is where they become gluttons

Taking whatever they desire

Virginities and freedom of choice

Sometimes both at the same time

This is where lust is satisfied

This is where addiction lives

Walking right into death's house

They can never escape once they're inside

It's just like Hotel California

This is where the humans die

Bridge 3

Ringtones and cameras are winning the popularity contest

More votes are cast on American Idol

Than in a federal election

Chorus

This is where the humans eat

This is where they come to feast

This is where they fill their stomachs

This is where they stuff their faces

This is where they smell, chew and swallow

This is where they become gluttons

This is where lust is satisfied

This is where addictions lives

This is where the humans die
