Ikea from Open Slather by Tripod

I think that I wanna try
Getting work with the guy
Who makes the plastic television sets for Ikea
So they can put them on show
 
I think they must
Cost a lot
They look real
And they're not
 
They're only fake
And they put them on the shelves at Ikea
So when the customers go
And wonder what the stuff would look like at home
It's all set up so they know!
 
I'd have to learn about plastics
And all the industrial techniques 
I could branch out on a sideline
And make plastic food that you can't eat
And plastic trees but my first love is TVs

Make 'em good make 'em fake
There's a lot that's at stake
I'd serve the world
By making plastic stuff for Ikea
The stuff that isn't for sale

You feel so good so at ease
There's no crime or disease
My plastic stuff would make the customers feel happier
Plastic world at Ikea
 
There's no electrical problems
With a plastic CD player
And you can't hurt your back
Carrying a hollow fridge
You'll never see a single murder
There's no violence on the blank screen of the telly
Plastic printers don't use paper not a single tree is killed

I think that I wanna try
Getting work with the guy
Who makes the plastic television sets for Ikea
