Album: Scarsick (2007) Music & Lyrics by: Daniel Gildenlow (chords found by ear) Macubert
Am                         D
Someone sells us toys in a cheap cartoon

Dm                           E                  D
Someone sells us cars in the latest Bond that's coming soon

Am                                D
Someone sells us trends through a sitcom star

Dm                         E              D
Someone sells herself in a docu-soap that goes too far

C#m
Life on sale!

(Am D Dm E D…)
("Could someone please just tell me what happened? I mean, first we paid for fast-
food that will make us all fat and tired. So then we pay for elevators, so we won't have to climb the 3 stairs up to our apartments. Then we buy freaking stairmaster machines so we can burn away while watching someone make real food on TV. Now if that doesn't make us winners, I don't know what will. I bet we would hang ourselves if the world would just cut us a slack. And now you think maybe you should see a shrink, help (me) feel alive again, yeah, that's a plan! Just tell us who to pay.")
Am                        D
Someone sells us man in a White House speech

Dm                                                                          
Then woman tightly pressed between two 

E                      D
bouncing breasts, on a Baywatch beach

Am                       D
Someone sells us us everywhere I turn

Dm                            E                    D
Then introducing them to earn stock-points on our concern

C#m           D
All for sale, all for sale

C#m                D
It's all for sale, all for sale

Am                      
Welcome down to planet Earth

             Em
Please don't ask us what it's worth

         F
You will notice that the world you found

   Dm                   C      G
Is slightly tattered and worn down

Am            
Someone sold us every stain

       Em
Now if you wish to complain

           F
There's an open spot at 6 PM

      Dm              C     G
It's when Caucasia is listening

Am                      
If you're tearing down my world

C                        Dm
Please just try to do it gently

Am
If you're tearing down my world

C                        Dm
Please just try to do it gently
There is love inside
                        Am
For a dream that has to die

(Am D Dm E D…)
("See, it's really all about time and choice. The fast food saves us enough time 
to squeeze lunch in exactly when we want it. The elevators save us just a little more, the stairmaster let us choose exactly when to walk the stairs. Time is so important these days, it's becoming a fucking disease, and I guess in a way it is since it's bound to kill us all in the end.Now with all the time and money we stashed away on others' expenses, I can only assume that the tickets to hell are really expensive. For some reason, it's important to be first in line.")
Am                            D
Someone sells us god in 2-for-1 with shame

Dm                            E                D

Someone sells us fear on TV each day

Dm                                E                  D
A shape for every taste; if the flavor’s right, we gladly pay

C#m           D
All on sale, all on sale

C#m                 D
We're all on sale, all on sale

But no one is really listening

Am
No, no

Em
Not anymore

                   F
We're all too busy buying sex, buying war

             Dm             C          G
Buying self-confidence, security, insurance plans

Am
Just buying forever

Am
As you're tearing down our world

C                        Dm
Please just try to do it gently
There's still love inside

For the dream that has to die
