Elevator Muzik - Resurrection Band

Who needs rock and roll?

Who needs songs about saving your soul?

Plastic music, plastic food

Cellophane tunes for that synthetic mood

You got your inspiration from a vending machine

It’s an audio starvation diet

Mannequins on a shopping spree

Who cares if you like it? — Buy it

It’s everywhere I go, (go, go, go, go)

It programs my soul

It tells me what I need

Oh, it takes a mean lead, lead

Elevator music, (a capital idea)

Elevator music, (programmed just for you)

Elevating sales at the speed of sound

Soon you’ll be shopping in Sen-Surround

Controlling your wallet, coaxing your soul

The corporate big brother — it’s an overload

Get off that conveyor, that treadmill of persuasion

Jesus brings the light into every situation

It’s everywhere I go, (go, go, go, go)

It programs my soul

It tells me what I need

Oh, it takes a mean lead, lead

Elevator music, (it's a capital idea)

Elevator music, (programmed just for you)

Buy, buy, sell, sell, ee-ee-ow

Elevator music — it’s a failure in heaven

Elevator music — it’s a subtle kind of leaven

What this world needs is music that feeds

Not elevator music

Not elevator music

Dump all that elevator music

Get rid of elevator music
