This is our video debut! WE ALL GO is a morality tale .. "don't make a religion of consumerism!"

lyrics

Osama bin laden / thoroughly wanton / strikes a blow for heaven
Airport security / makes a fool of me / every time I go a travelling
War breaks the bank / thieves help it tank / they eat their free lunch
I start cutting back / lose my house at that / thanks to the credit crunch

Oil keeps going up / sell my truck / oh my oh so bad luck
Fight or flight / Might ain’t right / I mooch another buck
Try to keep my Qi / moving naturally / that will set me free
Says Doctor Oz / Doctor Weil / Doctor Cosby, Doctor Welby

It’s a moral desert / dust keeps blowing in my eyes
I can hear the calling /a thunder pounds the darkened sky
Where angels fear to tread / a million clowns and I go
Pushing up and on / in search of kingdom come
It’s a supermarket Hajj / and we all go.

Help us William Gates / Larry Page / and Oprah Winfrey
Pay the stupid debt / save our skinny necks / hear this third world plea
We can see the light / Hollywood bright / at the tunnel’s end
Fox is the News / I’m sure those heartless fools / want to be our friend

I’m shooting over par / I want to be a big star / I’m sad with who I are
I buy and buy some more / what I can’t afford / but I don’t see that far
I got working overtime / but that was such a grind / I chose a life of crime
Started living big as Rap / bling and all that crap / and now I’m doing mall time

It’s a moral desert / dust keeps blowing in my eyes
I can hear the calling / a thunder pounds the darkened sky
Where angels fear to tread / a million clowns and I go
Pushing up and on / in search of kingdom come
It’s a supermarket Hajj / and we all go.

The music of the muezzin / from the mega Mosque of malls
The Synagogue of curios / in plastic gold paint stalls
The opium of emporiums / plays kiss-your-sister rock
The overstocked Temple / of the Big Bad Box

The pilgrimage of discounts / (It's a fire sale fraud)
Holy price wars rage / praise the name of the Lard
A Crusade of promotions / and one time only rates
Blessed low cost credit / is the toll through pearly gates

The Church of Free Parking / greets mom and pop and all
Is your soul worth savings? / Lines are open make the call
With a rosary of coupons / pray, scratch, and save
It's the Trinity of three for one / Forget about the slaves
