The Chemical Age - Presto Ballet

The industry of living

We are the cause, we know the cure

We’re keeping it a secret

You never really can be sure

Tell me are you feeling better

Cause I can change the weather

You’re under our suspicion

We rule the ones who make the rules

There’s really no decision

The over medicated fools

Now that I can change the weather

Things are gettin' better

Yes it’s all the rage, this chemical age

For those who have the power

The deeper pockets longer live

Invention of condition

With all the fear they have to give

Now that you are feeling better

You’re gonna live forever

Oh it’s all the rage, this chemical age

End the pain, if we find a vein

And if you lose your mind

We knew it all the time… all the time

Now you live in a medicated fantasy

You will be

Living free of all your ups and downs

All your symptoms fading

Turn into another ill

Condition is degrading

All you need is one more pill

Now that you can live forever

You’ll never get much better

I hate to ruin all the fun

Of a nations population

On a never ending numb

And we know it’s really all the rage

Cause we’re living as we’re dying

In this chemical age
