We used to think for ourselves-
But, now that idea has been put on the shelves.
.
Thanks to ads, they tell us what we should do-
They tell us where to go, and how to follow through.
.
The ads used to only be on the television set-
Thirty seconds, one after another, your attention to get.
.
But, nowadays, they are everywhere-
In the moonlight, in the sunlight, in the midst of glare.
.
On the street, on the table, on the school bus-
Ads, today, appear to be the modern must.
.
In the air, on the wrapper, and of course the radio-
To keep filling my head, so that my own tastes, I
no longer know.
.
To brand is the ultimate scheme-
To ensure to fulfill many a consumer’s dream.
.
Unique, to the point that you no longer have a
choice-
The advertising world, now has your voice.
.
In a normal world, you might not need that today-
But, in today’s world, to buy it, you’re already on
your way.
.
We used to think for ourselves-
But, now that idea has been put on the shelves.
