Soup is Good Food - Live at the Farm

Lyrics

We're sorry, but you're no longer needed
 Or wanted or even cared about here
 Machines can do a better job than you
 And this is what you get for asking questions
 The unions agree
 Sacrifices must be made
 Computers never go on strike
 To save the working man you've got to put him out to pasture
 Looks like we'll have to let you go
 Doesn't it feel fulfilling to know
 That you the human being are now obsolete
 And there's nothing in hell we'll let you do about it
 Soup is good food (we don't need you any more)
 You made a good meal (we don't need you any more)
 Now how does it feel (we don't need you any more)
 To be shit out our ass
 And thrown in the cold like a piece of trash
 We're sorry, you'll just have to leave
 Unemployment runs out after just six weeks
 How does it feel to be a budget cut?
 You're snipped, you no longer exist
 Your number's been purged from our central computer
 So we can rig the facts and sweep you under the rug
 See our chart? Unemployment's going down
 If that ruins your life that's your problem
 Soup is good food (we don't need you any more)
 You made a good meal (we don't need you any more)
 Now how does it feel (we don't need you any more)
 To be shit out our ass
 And thrown in the cold
 We're sorry, we hate to interrupt
 But it's against the law to jump off this bridge
 You'll just have to kill yourself somewhere else
 A tourist might see you and we wouldn't want that
 I'm just doing my job, you know
 So say uncle and we'll take you to the mental health zoo
 Force feed you mind melting chemicals
 'Til even the outside world looks great
 In hi-tech science research labs
 It costs too much to bury all the dead
 The mutilated disease injected
 Surplus rats who can't be used anymore
 So they're dumped, with no minister present
 In a spiraling corkscrew dispose all unit
 Ground into sludge and flushed away
 Aw geez!
 We don't need you any more
 We don't need you any more
 Soup is good food (we don't need you any more)
 You made a good meal (we don't need you any more)
 Now how does it feel (we don't need you any more)
 To be shit out our ass
 And thrown in the cold like a piece of trash
 We know how much you'd like to die
 We joke about it on our coffee breaks
 But we're paid to force you to have a nice day
 In the wonderful world we made just for you
 "Poor rats", we human rodents chuckle
 At least we get a dignified cremation
 Yet at 6:00 tomorrow morning
 It's time to get up and go to work
