Jingle All The Way Sick of holiday cheer yet? Nauseated by forced consumer bliss? Use music to soothe the savage shopper! This week and next we'll pass along a (slightly revised) carol or two to brighten your holiday mood. Please note that ETS! will take a week off between Christmas and New Year's; we publish next week (Tuesday, Dec. 23) with a special, 12-page year-end issue (don't miss it!), then come back on Tuesday, Jan. 6, 1998. Everyone sing along! Chorus: Profits here, profits there, profits everywhere Christmas time is funny, we smell money in the air Advertise, glamorize, fool you with a flair Let's make sure that Christmas is a businesslike affair You're eating up our lies and dashing to the stores Then all our prices rise and how the money pours If we don't keep you drugged and watching your TV You might see the hypocrisy then where would business be? Chorus: profits here... We'll tell you how to think and tell you what to try What to eat and drink and how to live and die And if our plan succeeds, when Christmastime is nigh Instead of seeking love and peace you'll hunt for gifts to buy Whoa, profits here... --Geov Parrish |
