Soup is Good Food — текст песни (dead kennedys)

Were sorry

But youre no longer needed

Or wanted

Or even cared about here

Machines can do a better job than you

This is what you get for asking questions



The unions agree

sacrifices must be made

Computers never go on strike

To save the working man youve got to put him out to pasture



Looks like well have to let you go

Doesnt it feel fulfilling to know

That youthe human beingare now obsolete

And theres nothing in hell well let you do about it



Chorus

Soup is good food(we dont need you any more)

You made a good meal(we dont need you any more)

Now how do you feel(we dont need you any more)

To be shit out our ass

And thrown in the cold like a piece of trash

Were sorry

Youll just have to leave

Unemployment runs out after just six weeks

How does it feel to be a budget cut?

Youre snipped

You no longer exist



Your numbers been purged from our central computer

So we can rig the facts

And sweep you under the rug

See our chart? unemployments going down

If that ruins your life thats your problem



Soup is good food, etc.

Were sorry

We hate to interrupt

But its against the law to jump off this bridge

Youll just have to kill yourself somewhere else

A tourist might see you

And we wouldnt want that



Im just doing my job, you know

So say uncle

And well take you to the mental health zoo

Force feed you mind-melting chemicals

Til even the outside world looks great



In hi-tech science research labs

It costs too much to bury all the dead

The mutilated disease-injected

Surplus rats who cant be used anymore



So theyre dumped (with no minister present)

In a spiraling corkscrew dispose-all unit

Ground into sludge and flushed away

Aw geez.



Soup is good food

You made a good meal, etc.

We know how much youd like to die

We joke about it on our coffee breaks

But were paid to force you to have a nice day

In the wonderful world we made just for you

"poor rats", we human rodents chuckle

At least we get a dignified cremation

At yet

At 6:00 tomorrow morning

Its time to get up and go to work
