about

A laid-back, reggae/folk reflection on our addiction to 'stuff'.

lyrics

(Craig Nuttycomb, Steve lester)
© Dogbreath Music, ASCAP

There’s a hole in the sole of most of the human race
A hole in our psyche nobody wants to face
We’re so far removed from our home the Earth
We only know how to measure our worth
Spending our time, standing in line to buy stuff

The power of advertising would have you believe
If you just buy this or that you’ll have all that you need
But for all that’s bought and for all that’s sold
There’s an emptiness inside our souls
And we try to fill it up with all of our stuff

And the world is a reality show; we live through the screen
Where you might be the winner
And you disappear into somebody else’s dream

I asked a friend would you take a walk with me
Maybe climb up a hill or just sit under a tree
Naw, c’mon with me we’ll have a ball, we’ll spend the day down at the mall
And we’ll fill our empty lives with some shiny new stuff

And the world is an Internet; we interact with the screen
Where nothing real can touch us
And we live out our techno-addictive dream

There’s a hole in the sole of most of the human race
A hole in our psyche nobody wants to face
From the crap we create to keep us amused
To the wars we fight for the energy we use
We’ll never slow down; we’ll never give up our stuff
Non-renewable, non-reusable stuff
