Negativland - Drink It Up lyrics

rate me

When Hi-C gets me low<br />

My lubbot's blue ain't blue it's brown<br />

My nestle's quick just makes me slow<br />

When my sparkling cider's lost it's shine<br />

My can of sharp's is dull<br />

Hawaiian punch has knocked me cold<br />

A feeling hits my skull.<br />

And my mind just turns to pepsi<br />

And i couldn't tell you why<br />

Smart drinks lead me to forget<br />

And coke won't get me high<br />

When constant comment won't shut up<br />

I'll sit right down and fill my cup<br />

With pepsi<br />

Drink it up<br />

When diet rite to me is wrong<br />

My country time's expired<br />

My minute maid's an hour long<br />

My maxwell house won't get me wired<br />

When my pet milk turns on me<br />

And my five alive is dead<br />

When my royal crown's been overthrown<br />

An impulse hits my head<br />

And my mind just turns to pepsi and i think of it a lot<br />

My swiss miss just wasn't pure<br />

And kool-aid isn't hot<br />

When a lot of smoothies rough me up<br />

I'll turn to a bigger cup of pepsi<br />

Drink it up...<br />

When samuel adams makes me ail<br />

Dr. pepper's not around<br />

When sweet success has let me fail<br />

I crave a flavor most profound<br />

And my mind just turns to pepsi<br />

When i look i see i buy<br />

My crystal light has just burned out<br />

And canada's gone dry<br />

My yoohoo will not call to me<br />

I am a loyal endorsee of pepsi<br />

Drink it up<br />

-----> words "drink it up" sung in background while boy speaks:<br />

It's just a funny thing..<br />

It's just a funny thing..<br />

That pepsi commercial where there's the sun setting on this farm<br />

And you hear this noise "reeh reeh" "reeh reeh"<br />

And you don't know what it is<br />

And then you see in the back of the barn<br />

And there's a soda machine<br />

And this guy has a dollar bill and it goes "reeh reeh" "reeh reeh"<br />

And then it takes it (voice over from ad "yes!")<br />

And he goes "yes!"<br />

"yes!"<br />

-----> back to singer:<br />

Everybody drink it up
