lirik lagu bread and circuses - lydia elliott

darwin stated evolution is the change
of organisms over time
we think it means that we are bright
evolving, losing pinkie toes
but we are not your average apes
we’ve made it to the top of the food chain
and stayed the same
kept our lizard brain

and, sure, we’ve straightened out our spines
and lost our tails over time

but we want pleasure and we want it fast

we beg for bread and circuses
we’ve come so far that we’ve regressed
we beg for bread and circuses
we grow and grow and then decay
we beg for bread and circuses
we talk about this need for change
then beg for bread and circuses

we can thank our mortal gods for sparing grain
why would we complain?
it’s smoother to swallow than a lump of change
but violence ripples, lives are lost in vain
we were not born to live beneath
the bombs consume civilian streets
a war is shredding families
we won’t accept excess
i’m starving for a change that will surpass a loaf of bread
we are not complicit in this war
we cannot stay silent anymore
every digit hides a mom and son
there’s nothing we can claim
to make these casualties human

we want pleasure and we want it fast
we beg for bread and circuses
we’ve come so far that we’ve regressed
we beg for bread and circuses
we grow and grow and then decay
we beg for bread and circuses
we talk about this need for change
then beg for bread and circuses

reality is tv
i don’t know what to believe
and so i’ll vent about it in a song

reality is tv
we’re back in 30 b.c
i think this has gone on too long

reality is tv
we watch it like a movie
i pray there is compassion in us all
reality is tv
i don’t know what to believe
i think we should tell darwin he was wrong
