Dear Ed' from spaceavailable. by P.O.Box
DEAR ED, où l’on y aborde, sous la forme d’une lettre écrite à l’attention d’Edward Bernays, la propagande, la fabrique de l’opinion et la publicité, lui qui est le principal architecte de la manipulation des masses, contribuant à développer le consumérisme.

Lyrics
DEAR ED
VERSE 1
Dear Ed, I hope this email finds you well.
So you stuffed and smoked us all up
with your « bacon and eggs » stories
with “Torches of Freedom” for the ladies
PRE-CHORUS
You ripped us off
Then we all got smoked
You ripped us off
We’re surely not stoked
CHORUS
Ending up violating the masses
Tell me how it feels?
And how does your uncle feel?
Propaganda, that’s it
What’s his take on it?
VERSE 2
“I want you for the US army”
Selling this with the four-minute men
What a clusterfuck, not a solution
This is how you govern
PRE-CHORUS
You ripped us off
The president was a Commie
You ripped us off
This United Fruit Company
CHORUS
Ending up violating the masses
Tell me how it feels?
And how does your uncle feel?
Propaganda, that’s it
What’s his take on it?
BRIDGE
I do not kiss you, Ed,
Knowing how to impress them
Is knowing how to govern them
I know that way too well.
Go to hell!
CHORUS
Ending up violating the masses
Tell me how it feels?
And how does your uncle feel?
Propaganda, that’s it
What’s his take on it?
