Dark City - Eldorado (Track 12 of 12)

Aaron:

I can't see a thing
Could someone please hit the lights?
One city, one switch

Ethan:

I remember a time when a bag of chips cost 50
¢.
Now they cost a dollar.

Oh! Ode to a vending machine.
Back from the time I was young.
Where one could buy boxes of "Shock-Tarts"
Or a salty snack to tingle my tongue.

And why can't a guy get an actual bottle of orange juice anywhere?
Instead of some watered-down sugary crap.

Oh! Ode to a vending machine.
Back from the time of my youth.
Where one could buy a "Hawaiian Punch"
Or something to treat my sweet tooth.

And would it be so hard to put in some "Almond M&M's" once in a while?
Some people actually like almonds.

Oh! Ode to a vending machine.
Back from the time I was small.
Where one could find "Cookies 'n' Cream" bars
Now I can't find them at all.
