The slow increase of consumerism
The idea of people as consumers took shape before WWI, but it became more common in America in the 1920s.
People have always consumed the basics of life - food, clothing, shelter. They had to work to get them, but there was little economic motive for increased consumption among the masses. Attempts to promote new fashions and boost sales slowly increased as the pursuit of wealth extended beyond the very rich.

Sing~a~Song~ of~Sixpence
sing a song of sixpence
a bottle full of rye
four and twenty blackbirds
baked in a pie.
When the pie was opened
the birds began to sing;
Who put that pastry on,
we could'nt see a thing!
The King was in the
counting house
Counting out
his money;
The Queen was
in the parlour,
Looking at him
kind of funny!
The maid was in the garden
hanging out the clothes;
where the king spends his cash,
she's the one who knows!

God Is A Queer
I bet if I told you,
You could see faith.
But you're too stupid,
Too figure him out.
The answer is right here,
God is a queer.
I bet you would fuck him,
Of course, you're a believer.
I bet you would feel him,
Of course, you raise your hands to him
You write songs for him,
But whats he done for you.
WoW! Free-will, I've sold mine,
But where's the truth at?
At least we know, Satan,
There are pictures, and diseases.
But where is God?
Who knows, but all I know is,
God is a Christian Queer
