We're Underwater
from Garner Isn't · host Ed Garner
We're Underwater. We sold our future for a pocket full of worthless paper. The money you use is phony. The food you eat may be genetically modified. The water you drink may be tainted, but the propagandists keep telling you everything is all right. Look out a window. Is it contentment you see or feel? We're living in historic times. Normalcy isn't coming back, cause you believed all you ever needed was more, and there isn't going to be more. The government has to keep borrowing money to function, and they keep telling us we're the wealthiest nation on earth, but it was just a bad dream. MUSIC Roy Budd, Carter Burwell, Justin Hurwitz, John Barry
