Disposable Society

by Esther Phillips

Lyrics
Disposable society
Has thrown away the best in me
They've thrown away sincerity
The keystone of integrity
Disposable, to throw away
Buy something new another day
There's nothing made that's made to stay
Planned obsolescence will make you pay

Paper plates, cardboard skates, plastic silverware
Automobiles with disposable wheels
Wigs instead of hair
That's how it is

Disposable brand new love
Not exactly what you're thinking of
Dispose of me when you are through
For fear that I'll dispose of you
Disposable, your closest friend
You swore to love right to the end
Your rigid mind won't let you bend
You're further gone than you pretend

Paper plates, cardboard skates, plastic silverware
Automobiles with disposable wheels
Wigs instead of hair
Lord, that's how it is

Disposable society
Has thrown away the best in me
They've thrown away sincerity
The keystone of integrity
Disposable, to throw away
Buy something new another day
There's nothing made that's made to stay
Planned obsolescence will make you pay

Paper plates, cardboard skates, plastic silverware
Automobiles with disposable wheels
Wigs instead of hair

Oh, Lordy
Mmm, that's how it is

Disposable society
Has thrown away the best in me
They've thrown away sincerity
The keystone of integrity
Disposable, to throw away
Buy something new another day
There's nothing made that's made to stay
Planned obsolescence will make you pay

Paper plates, cardboard skates, plastic silverware
Automobiles with disposable wheels
Wigs instead of hair
Trying to tell you, trying to tell you, that's how it is
