Terminus

by The Cravats

on The Colossal Tunes Out (1983), The Land Of The Giants (2006)

When we get to the to the end
After fat people dragged
Food through the streets
In the rain and the dark
Under amber street lights
And they jam it in their box
And squeeze shut the door
Cutting on the price
Cutting on the value
Saving more money to make life better
But the life's been destroyed
By the Bauhaus lifestyle
And those who haven't heard
Of a minimal art

When we get to the top
Of piles of goods
Survey the land
The pock marked expanse
With a million more piles
You're bored but happy
That your pile is higher
And we grind to a halt
You're bored but happy
Substituting life
With cheap and efficient
Economy drives
