  • The lines have all been blurred
    To the point of no return
    The sickos and the bullies praise your name
    You've enriched their lives with pleasure and fame
    As a corporate as the suits you won't wear
    As stupid as the jeans you tear
    As evil as the pretense you care
    God save us all from Satan's stare
    Don't be evil, just be corporate
    Fool the world with all your own importance
    Portray your tedium for the world to see
    Your own movie star and it's for free

    The lines have all been blurred
    To the point of no return
    With normal people living normal lives
    Normal things seen through normal eyes
    As a corporate as the suits you won't wear
    As stupid as the jeans you tear
    As evil as the pretense you care
    God save us all from Satan's stare
    Don't be evil, just be corporate
    Fool the world with all your own importance
    Portray your tedium for the world to see
    Your own movie star and it's for free

    The music is going, the sun ain't showing
    The printed word is all done and dusted
    Don't be evil, just be corporate
    Fool the world with all your own importance
    The music is going, the sun ain't showing
    Pretend technology made us equal
    Don't be evil, just be corporate
    Fool the world with all your own importance Writer/s: JAMES BRADFIELD, NICHOLAS JONES, SEAN MOORE
