This song is full of them. My favourite would have to be:

"Computer terminals report some gains on the values of
copper and tin ... While American Businessmen snap Van
Goghs for the price of a Hospital wing."

: )

Share your own.

P.S.
Here's the song:

    Good song, but I counted a grand total of one simile ("Like the doped white mice in the college lab"). Elsewhere in the lyrics, there's a single metaphor (the needle returning to the start of the song) and that's it.

    Now here's a song with a simile...
