Lyrics
What are you waiting for, enough of this redundancy Why don't you go back to my show, no need to torture me It's just commercials, damn commercials on my plasma screen It's such a pain, so I complain while drinking my caffeine My Nike shoes are on my feet I'm going out to get some McDonald's to eat Don't know what my brain is for I used to, but I don't no more I am a consumer whore I am a consumer whore (Gibberish.) My life's a mess, I'm all alone But that's okay, ‘cause I got my cute little Nokia cell-phone Don't know what my brain is for I used to, but I don't no more I am a consumer whore I am a consumer whore What do you want from me? What do I want from you? Somebody talk to me Tell me you feel it too This unstoppable force that delivers my hand to my wallet Extracts all my hard earned dinero, and casts it to the smirking rottweilers What do you want from me? What do I want from you? Somebody talk to me Please tell me you feel it too It's something that I can't ignore I used to but I can't no more I am a consumer whore I am a consumer whore (And how!)

Trivia
A screenshot from Don Hertzfeldt’s Rejected
- This song was inspired by Don Hertzfeldt’s Rejected, made clear by the “And how!” at the end.
- However, the “And how!” gets cut off at “And” and flows into the next track, Between You and Me with “How!” starting off the song.
- An early version of this song exists.
