Consommation, piège à cons ?

Le Pistolet et La Pioche #14

La société de consommation dévore tout, même ses consommateurs qui tout en la haïssant, la plébiscitent chaque jour. Comment cette boucle rétroactive est-elle possible ? Avec quels effets ? Y a-t-il des moyens d'en sortir, ou à minima d'être moins happé ?

Parler de la société de consommation et du système de pensée consumériste n'est pas simple, surtout que ces concepts sont au centre du fonctionnement de la "civilisation capitaliste". Le Pistolet et la Pioche a quand même décidé d'aller creuser dans tout ça, avec des constats, mais aussi des solutions. Le tout en musique, comme d'habitude, et pas n'importe quelle musique…

Killing Joke — Eighties

Eighties, I'm living in the eighties

Eighties, I have to push, I have to struggle

Eighties, get out of my way, I'm not for sale no more

Eighties, let's kamikaze till we get there

And we sang

You do it this way

Eighties, by day we run by night we dance, we do

Eighties, I'm in love with the coming race

Eighties, I've got the best, I'll take all I can get

Eighties, I'm living for the eighties

Eighties, I'm living in the eighties, I push

Eighties, I'm living

Eighties, I'm living in the eighties, I struggle

Eighties, I'm living

Eighties, I'm living

Eighties, I'm living in the eighties

Eighties, I'm living in the eighties, I push

Eighties, push, push, struggle

Eighties, I'm living

Eighties, eighties, I'm living

Eighties, I'm living in the eighties, I push

Eighties, push, push, struggle

The Stranglers — Always The Sun

How many times have you woken up and prayed for the rain ?

How many times have you seen the papers apportion the blame ?

Who gets to say ?

Who gets to work and who gets to play ?

I was always told at school, everybody should get the same

How many times have you been told if you don't ask you don't get ?

How many lads have taken your money? Your Mother said you shouldn't bet

Who has the fun ?

Is it always a man with a gun ?

Someone must have told you if you work too hard you can sweat ?

There's always the sun

Mmmm

There's always the sun

Always, always, always the sun

How many times have the weathermen told you stories that made you laugh ?

You know its not unlike the politicians and the leaders, when they do things by halves

Who gets the job ?

Of pushing the knob

That's what responsibility you draw straws for if you're mad enough

There's always the sun

Mmmm

There's always the sun

Always, always, always the sun

The The — This is The Day

Well you didn't wake up this morning

'Cause you didn't go to bed

You were watching the whites of your eyes turn red

The calendar on your wall

Is ticking the days off

You've been reading some old letters

You smile and think how much you've changed

All the money in the world

Couldn't buy back those days

You pull back the curtains

And the sun burns into your eyes

You watch a plane flying

Across the clear blue Sky

This is the day

Your life will surely change

This is the day

When things fall into place

You could've done anything

If you'd wanted

And all your friends and family

Think that you're lucky

But the side of you they'll never see

Is when you're left alone with the memories

That hold your life

Together like

Glue

You pull back your curtains

And the sun burns into your eyes

You watch a plane flying

Across the clear blue Sky

This is the day

Your life will surely change

This is the day

When things fall into place

This is the day (this is the day)

That your life will surely change
