Listen "Product of Indoctrination"
Episode Synopsis
The fifth song on the album "One Day at a Time" (2023).
Lyrics:
It’s the product of indoctrination
It’s the truth of which we dare not see
It’s the lies we tell ourselves and future co-dependencies
It’s the ruling of our governed nation
It’s the way it's through history
It’s the way it’s been and the way it’ll always be
Busy busy all day long
And we all know that there’s something wrong
When you spend your time at work doing things for other people
Just to show that you are strong
Always living day to day
And extra work means extra pay
Take it while you’re young, and you’ve no responsibilities
And good things will come your way, they say!
It’s the product of indoctrination
It’s the truth of which we dare not see
It’s the lies we tell ourselves and future codependencies
It’s the noise of heading up a family
It’s the buzz of working night and day
It’s the vision of a peaceful country,
When the kids have gone away
Find someone to call your own
Find a house, then make a home
Have a couple kids to keep the passion burning
Cus who wants to be alone?
When you’re working days are done
It’s time to have a little fun
But because you’re old and tired and mad at the world
You can’t enjoy the prize you’ve won
So you go to sleep
Wake up in the morning
Tend to what needs tending but you’re
Dreams are out of reach
Should have done it sooner
Regret is never ending on this
Mad little planet we call Earth
And why is that?
It’s the product of indoctrination
It’s the truth of which we dare not see
It’s the lies we tell ourselves and future codependencies
It’s the fear of what’s around the corner
It’s the drain of pure conformity
It’s the way that it’s been and the way it’ll always be x2
