It Must Look Pretty Appealing
Bad Religion
No Control (1991)

the wheat waving next to you is healthy </br> and so fine as is dinner with your </br> loved-ones every day,</br> but your routines is changeless </br> through the decades of your life</br> green pastures open spaces holy ways,

and it must look pretty appealing, </br> the acres of lights,</br> the crowded festive nights</br> and the millions of others just like you,</br> it must look pretty appealing,</br> this other world of sin,</br> we keep dreaming of what other people do</br> the person sitting next to you</br> is dismal and deranged on the bus ride home from</br> work to end your day,</br> and the food on your table is more </br> plastic than protein,</br> and your intellect depends on your TV,

and it must look pretty appealing,</br> the pastoral retreat,</br> the folks on old main street,</br> and the few pleasant people</br> just like you,</br> it must look pretty appealing,</br> the simple way of life,</br> we keep dreaming of what other people do,</br> but we never do what other people do,</br> you're too scared of other people</br> not like you
