The black wind blows like you've never seen And your TV screen is filled with snow And the naked truth has an unmarked grave Between the waves on your radio And war is peace and peace is war And less is more and yes is no They want to tell you this, they want to tell you that Just hold your hat when the black wind blows CHORUS Everywhere I go I hear what's going on And the more I hear the less I know Everywhere I go I hear what's going on And the more I hear the less I know And they're all tripped out on the ship of state They're running late for the breakfast show And God likes guns, doves are hawks And Jesus walks in Idaho And the food we buy won't go bad But the cows are mad and the chickens glow They want to tell you this, they want to sell you that Just hold your hat when the black wind blows CHORUS (repeating)
