about

I realized I didn't know my Great Grandparents first name(s) without looking it up but I could recite every jingle from the 90's with eidetic memory. So, I wrote a song based around some of the slogans that have inundated my psyche. More than just a homage to the endless stream of consumerism-propaganda that's littering the collective unconscious, I recorded a song that allowed me to ruminate on the cognitive dissonance of being a producer (and consumer) in this age of industrial consumption-driven climate change.

lyrics

I never snapped into a slim jim
I never did the dew
I never just did it and once I popped I stopped
And there's nothing you can do about it
In this impossible hour

In this impossible scheme
In this improbable dream
Time is on Your side

I left home without it
I can't hear you now
I'm not a pepper I never had wings
And there's nothing you can do about it
In this impossible hour

In this unstoppable feed
In this self serving machine
Time is on our side

So hold on dear
Perhaps in the morning we'll see things clear
Hopeful a message will soon appear
Unadulterated by our fear

So hold on dear
Perhaps in the morning we'll see things clear
Hopeful a message will soon appear
Unadulterated by our fear
