Don't touch that dial Television screen Your face turning green Don't listen to the news They don't know what you hear They never make it clear They like it if you stay confused Propaganda time, the official line You're hungry, you get fed Everlasting smile You must admire their style But they're just a talking head Television voice Don't give you any choice You only hear the man Don't take them in You don't know where they been Cause it's a complex plan
They keep you nice and quiet Even control your diet You're hungry, you get fed Teach you to be meek Till all you are is weak Till you're just a talking head Television scream This ought to be a dream Remember what I say Don't be hypnotised by sugarcoated lies Don't switch it on today It's the way things are From that pickle jar You're hungry, you get fed But if you play the game You become the same Another talking head
