NEIL YOUNG lyrics : "The Restless Consumer"

The people have heard the news
The people have spoken
You may not like what they said

But they weren't jokin'

Way out on the desert sands

Lies a desperate lover
They call her the "Queen of Oil"
So much to discover


Don't need no ad machine
Telling me what I need

Don't need no Madison Avenue War
Don't need no more boxes I can see


Covered in flags but I can't see them on TV

Don't need no more lies

Don't need no more lies
Don't need no more lies
Don't need no more lies


The restless consumer flies
Around the world each day

With such an appetite for taste and grace

People from around the world

Need someone to listen
We're starving and dying from our disease
We need your medicine

How do you pay for war
And leave us dyin' ?
When you could do so much more

You're not even tryin'

Don't need no TV ad

Tellin' me how sick I am
Don't want to know how many people are like me
Don't need no dizziness

Don't need no nausea
Don't need no side effects like diarrhea or sexual death


Don't need no more lies
Don't need no more lies
Don't need no more lies

Don't need no more lies

The restless consumer lies

Asleep in her hotel
With such an appetite
For anything that sells


A hundred voices from a hundred lands
Need someone to listen

People are dying here and there
They don't see the world the way you do
There's no mission accomplished here

Just death to thousands

A hundred voices from a hundred lands

Cry out in unison

Don't need no terror squad

Don't want no damned Jihad
Blowin' themselves away in my hood
But we don't talk to them

So we don't learn from them
Hate don't negotiate with Good


Don't need no more lies
Don't need no more lies
Don't need no more lies

Don't need no more lies

The restless comsumer flies

Around the world each day
With such an appetite for efficiency
And pace...

Don't need no more lies.
