Carbon/Silicon – Caesars Palace lyrics

I wish we could see
Where the dreams all went
I wish we could see
Where the money got spent
I wish we could see
That the greatest crime
Was to fool all of the people
To spend all their time

I wish we could see
Why we need so much stuff
I wish we could see
That enough is enough
I wish we could see
That the goings got tough
Cause my living room's crammed
And my passion's backed off

Value what is necessary
Leave what is not
And tell me what
I'm doing in another shop

I wish we could see
That we're outta control
I wish we could see
That we binge out our soul
I wish we could see
That we're gonna have to stop
There's no one in the church
'Cause they're all in the shop

I wish we could see
What is hard to believe
I wish we could see
Better to give than receive
I wish we could see
That we've lost the plot
All this envy is coveting
Of what we ain't got

Value what is necessary
Leave what is not
And tell me what
I'm doing in another shop

I tried to give up smoking
I tried to give up drugs
I tried to give up smoking weed
But I have to walk the dog
I tried to give up drinking
But I think I need a drink
I tried to give up thinking
That I was the missing link

In the year of the dog
Will we understand worth
The happiness we'll find
In breath you draw on earth
The year of the dog
Is the year of the smurf
I don't know
What the franchise is worth

Value what is necessary
Leave what is not
And tell me
What I'm doing in another shop
Value what is necessary
Leave what is not
And tell me
What I'm doing in another shop

Brought up
In the world of Caesars Palace
I'm being poisoned
On a daily basis
They ain't got food tasters
In some of these places
Caesars Palace

Brought up
In the world of Caesars Palace
And now I got
So much stuff I don't need
It's a sickness
You can call it greed
Caesars Palace

Brought up
In the world of Caesars Palace
It's a sin, get the money in
Validate the parking
You can wash away your sins
Caesars Palace

Brought up in the world of Caesars Palace
And the odds are a trillion to one
And still I want some
Caesars Palace
