End of Hype

These clearance sales
they’re going on and on
You can see it in the eyes
of the customer assistance girls

I go for my cheque book
Took it out of my pocket
Took a look at my last day
I saw it all and I forgot it

There is a sign on the wall
A ghost of the world that we once knew
Now that world is gone
And the story so far is an illusion

I bought an experience
I said any one will do
I am an animal
But I bight and I can not chew

There is a sign on the wall
A ghost of the world that we once knew
Now that world is gone
And the story so far is an illusion

I pray for the master race
But I stay for the chorus
I’m just here to watch the chase
That consumes all of us

I bought a golden truck
And I filled it up with red carpet
Now I’m on the way on up

I had everything that I needed
But I picked the wrong
Mountain top
