Look around, they are lying to you
Can’t you see it is just a silly ruse?
They are lying, and I am lying too
All you want is entertainment—
Rip me open, it’s free!If you want to take a shot at me, well get in line
Baby, I’ve had all my shots and I’m fine
If you haven’t had enough of me, well get in line
You deserve it now, it’s alrightWe can drown in mediocrity, it feels sublime
It sounds like someone pushed rewind
Give it to me easily, my feeble mind needs time
Make it sweet and syrupy with rhymeDon’t drag me down,
I’m not falling down
Don’t drag me down,
I’m not falling downIf your art is done, Johnny get your gun
Join the rank and file, on your TV dialThe grip of fear
Is already here
The lines are drawn:
Whose side are you on?
