Buy, buy, buy
Don’t ask why
The glittering prizes on the TV
You can own them all easily
Take out another loan from me
Thrifty is a word we don’t use
Shiny products at every turn
I hope that you will never learn
Not to spend more than you earn
And have to pay your dues
A new games system, clean and bright
A meal out and drinks every night
Brainwashed to think you have the right
To live beyond your pay
Spend what you can’t afford to do
Soon wolves will be hounding you
Taking things both old and new
‘Til it’s all been taken away
Be careful what you spend
Everyone pays in the end
