Mislead
It’s been quite a while
Since I’ve watched TV
And what intrigues most
Is commercials I see
Thirty second spots
Telling you what you need
Just like Inception
Planting the seed
A trip to Cancun
You’ll be happy there
Drinks on the beach
And not have a care
A new video game
You get to pretend
That you’re a real hero
You fight and defend
You need this car if
You want them to think
That you’re rich and get
A pretty girl’s wink
I can’t help but feel
We’re being mislead
It’s not about joy
It’s all about $bread$
The ones who put on
This ongoing farce
Their care for your joy
Is really quite sparse
They’re not driven ‘cause
They want you content
Their sole motivation’s
The almighty cent
They mislead you to
Believe that you need
All of these things
That just feed your greed
They encourage you
To just think inward
Trying to make
Your selfishness stirred
Half-minute spots
From phonies and liars
Hoping that you
Will be their next buyers
Don’t be mislead
By good looking actors
Exotic locations
And other rich factors
They’re lying to you
You don’t need their wares
Do not let your wants
Coincide with theirs
See through the veil
Of music and lights
Shallow joy and
Misleading delights
