[Verse 1]
Oh, you win, it's your show now
So what's it going to be?
Because people will tune in
How many train wrecks do we need to see?
Before we lose touch of
We thought this was low
Well, it's bad, getting worse so
[Chorus 1]
Where'd all the good people go ?
I've been changing channels
I don't see them on the TV shows
Where'd all the good people go ?
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow
[Chorus 2]
They got this and that
With a rattle a tat
Testing, 1, 2
Man, what are you going to do
Bad news, misused
Got too much to lose
Give me some truth
Now whose side are we on?
Whatever you say, turn on the b**b-tube
I'm in the mood to obey
So lead me astray, and by the way now
[Chorus 1]
Where'd all the good people go ?
I've been changing channels
I don't see them on the TV shows
Where'd all the good people go ?
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow
[Verse 2]
Sitting around, feeling far away
So far away, but I can feel the debris, Can you feel it?
You interrupt me from a friendly conversation
To tell me how great it's all going to be
You might notice some hesitation (Because)
It's important to you, it's not important to me
But way down by the edge of your whole reason
It's beginning the show
And all I really want to know is
[Chorus 1]
Where'd all the good people go ?
I've been changing channels
I don't see them on the TV shows
Where'd all the good people go ?
We got heaps and heaps of what we sow
[Chorus 2]
They got this and that
With a rattle a tat
Testing, 1, 2
Man, what are you going to do
Bad news, misused
Got too much to lose
Give me some truth
Now whose side are we on?
Whatever you say, turn on the b**b-tube
I'm in the mood to obey
So lead me astray, and by the way now
[Outro]
Station through station
Desensitizing the nation
Where did all the people go?
Going, going, gone
