Tell me what's worse: The box or the bomb? Tell me what keeps you up all night long? Headlines hypnotize like deer caught in headlights Pushing the issues way out of sight Their hooks get caught deep in your eyes It's thought control, erasing your mind A televised culture united by greed Satellites transmit the model family Listen up, now it ain't what it seems Pay no attention to the biased news team You must understand it's part of the plan Living in fear under their command Failed actors reading the news with a smile Turn it off, get up, go outside for awhile
