Negativland - Drink It Up lyrics

When Hi-C gets me low

My lubbot's blue ain't blue it's brown

My nestle's quick just makes me slow

When my sparkling cider's lost it's shine

My can of sharp's is dull

Hawaiian punch has knocked me cold

A feeling hits my skull.

And my mind just turns to pepsi

And i couldn't tell you why

Smart drinks lead me to forget

And coke won't get me high

When constant comment won't shut up

I'll sit right down and fill my cup

With pepsi

Drink it up

When diet rite to me is wrong

My country time's expired

My minute maid's an hour long

My maxwell house won't get me wired

When my pet milk turns on me

And my five alive is dead

When my royal crown's been overthrown

An impulse hits my head

And my mind just turns to pepsi and i think of it a lot

My swiss miss just wasn't pure

And kool-aid isn't hot

When a lot of smoothies rough me up

I'll turn to a bigger cup of pepsi

Drink it up...

When samuel adams makes me ail

Dr. pepper's not around

When sweet success has let me fail

I crave a flavor most profound

And my mind just turns to pepsi

When i look i see i buy

My crystal light has just burned out

And canada's gone dry

My yoohoo will not call to me

I am a loyal endorsee of pepsi

Drink it up

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

It's just a funny thing..

It's just a funny thing..

That pepsi commercial where there's the sun setting on this farm

And you hear this noise "reeh reeh" "reeh reeh"

And you don't know what it is

And then you see in the back of the barn

And there's a soda machine

And this guy has a dollar bill and it goes "reeh reeh" "reeh reeh"

And then it takes it (voice over from ad "yes!")

And he goes "yes!"

"yes!"

-----> back to singer:

Everybody drink it up
