"Kill your television."
|
Said the poet on the street
|
It's just mental anasthesia
|
And it's putting us to sleep
|
'Cause they copy what's been copied
|
But they're never going to lead
|
They're just frightened of their market share
|
They're just puppets to their greed
|
He said, "Someone's got to change it"
|
And the crowd all agreed
|
|
But even boots can change your saunter
|
Make a humble man walk tough
|
A fast car'll make you impatient
|
Like you can't go fast enough
|
They offered him a talk show
|
He said, "Ok, what do I do."
|
|
Well you get inside the system
|
And the system get in you
|
And when you think you've got the power
|
Look at who's got who
|
|
"Well I'll tell you what's wrong with the country"
|
Said the man with the big tattoo
|
"It's all these priveleged politicians
|
Ain't that right? Ain't that true?"
|
I said "Yeah, you're probably right, bud
|
And I'll tell you what, I'll vote for you
|
But when you move into the White House
|
Tell me, what are you gonna do?"He said "I'll mind my own damn business
|
Have a big old barbeque"
|
|
You think you pick up power
|
And use it like a tool
|
But who's plugged into what here
|
And who's getting fooled?
|
|
You think you've broke the system
|
The system broken you
|
When you think you've got the power
|
Look at who's got who
