lyrics

They call me sir
Surplus
I am big
Bigger than needed

I’m a new thing,
So new I’m not ripe yet
You don’t know what to do with me, me, me
Never before have you had more than just what you needed, needed, needed, needed

They call me sir
Surplus
I am big
Bigger than needed
They call me sir
Surplus
I am big
Bigger than needed

All to yourself you keep me
Maybe there’s more to share, to give out
Wealth spreads around, you give me away
For goods and services formerly unreachable for you

They call me sir
Surplus
I am big
Bigger than needed

Build me up
Higher and higher
More and more
I want to grow
I’m more important than human lives
I’ll make you love me and noone else
Build me up
Higher and higher
More and more
I want to grow
I’m more important than human lives
I’ll make you love me and noone else

They call me sir
Surplus
I am big
Bigger than needed

Lost perspective
Found value
Caring no longer enough
Life used to matter
Survival struggle
Now here I am to corrupt your hearts
Lost perspective
Found value
Caring no longer enough
Life used to matter
Survival struggle
Now here I am to corrupt your hearts

They call me sir
Surplus
I am big
Bigger than needed

Survival test once gave meaning
Now towards wealth you are leaning
I’m all your thoughts in your mind
Now in your head fills a void
Survival test once gave meaning
Now towards wealth you are leaning
I’m all your thoughts in your mind
Now in your head fills a void

They call me sir
Surplus
I am big
Bigger than needed
They call me sir
Surplus
I am big
Bigger than needed
