Culture Addict by Subhumans
Culture Addict lyrics
Upper downer, side to side
We live to watch or have a go
Let's reproduce the advert life
That winks the �yes� as it yells the �no�
(Now you're just a culture addict)
And sells the basic contradiction
What you need is more addiction
Every desire is up for sale
Greed succeeds as reason fails
Addicted tricked but then I fixed it
Kicked it, missed it - couldn't resist it
What's addiction? Who's to say
Degrees extreme or every day
With repetition it begins
Realisation sinking in
(Now you're just a culture addict)
No more choice of take or leave it
The double-sided "can't believe it"
How did something so brand new
Become the only thing to do?
Addicted tricked but then I fixed it
Kicked it, missed it - couldn't resist it
Pleasure was the measure used
To judge the idea of success
But then your conscience got abused
By false conceptions of "the best"
Now it�s too easy to get more
And more of what you're needing less
And harder too, to reach a point
Beyond this culture of excess
Addicted tricked but then I fixed it
Kicked it, missed it - couldn't resist it
Addicted
Couldn�t resist it
