The Ad Girl
-----------
The time has come, the ad girl said,
To speak of many things
Of chocolate shakes you have for lunch
Of tight bikini strings
Of yeast infection remedies
And great big diamond rings!
Your hands are soft, your skin is smooth,
Your hair has shine and bounce!
You eat six pints of Haagen-Dazs
And never gain an ounce!
You owe it all to chemicals
With names you can't pronounce.
You'll have it made, the ad girl said,
If only you'll do this:
Make sure your breath is minty clean
And fresh enough to kiss.
Use Crest and Scope and Certs each day
And then you'll never miss!
No, wait! Don't go! There's more to do!
I haven't yet begun.
There's jeans and bras and Diet Coke,
Perfume for everyone!
How will you know which brand to buy?
You've only sampled one!
I'll change your life, the ad girl said,
You've got to let me try!
Just take out all your credit cards;
I'll show you what to buy!
And then you'll never be afraid
To smile at some cute guy.
What makes her think you want all this?
When is enough enough?
Who on Earth would ever want
To purchase all this stuff?
It should be clear to everyone:
The industry's a bluff!
Don't hate me 'cause I'm beautiful,
For you can look good, too.
Your hair can change from black to blonde,
Your eyes from brown to blue.
That cellulite can burn away,
You'll feel as good as new!
I've got you now, the ad girl thought,
A cinch to get this far.
A few more ads, a few more songs,
I'm sure you'll buy this car.
(She'll never guess that all your friends
Still like you as you are.)

harrison (Heather A Harrison):
Some of us fall by the wayside
And some of us soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with the scars

therese (Therese):
If we seek solace in the prisons of the distant past
Security in human systems we're told will always always last
Emotions are the sail and blind faith is the mast
Without the breath of real freedom we're getting no where fast
If God is dead and an actor plays his part
his words of fear will find their way to a place in your heart
Without the voice of reason every faith is its own curse
Without freedom from the past things can only get worse
..History will teach us nothing
