Fun Fun Fun in the fluffy chair

Flame up the herb

Woof down the beer

Hi
|
I'm your video DJ
|
I always talk like I'm wigged out on quaaludes
|
I wear a satin baseball jacket everywhere I go
|
|
My job is to help destroy
|
What's left of your imagination
|
By feeding you endless doses
|
Of sugar-coated mindless garbage
|
|
So don't create
|
Be sedate
|
Be a vegetable at home
|
And thwack on that dial
|
If we have our way even you will believe
|
This is the future of rock and roll
|
|
How far will you go
|
How low will you stoop
|
To tranquilize our minds with your sugar-coated swill
|
|
You've turned rock and roll rebellion
|
Into Pat Boone sedation
|
Making sure nothing's left to the imagination
|
|
M.T.V. Get off the
|
M.T.V. Get off the
|
M.T.V. Get off the air
|
Get off the air
|
|
See the latest rejects from the muppet show
|
Wag their tits and their dicks
|
As they lip-synch on screen
|
There's something I don't like
|
About a band who always smiles
|
Another tax write-off
|
For some schmuck who doesn't care
|
|
M.T.V. Get off the air
|
And so it was
|
Our beloved corporate gods
|
Claimed they created rock video
|
Allowing it to sink as low in one year
|
As commercial TV has in 25
|
"It's the new frontier," they say
|
It's wide open, anything can happen
|
But you've got a lot of nerve
|
To call yourself a pioneer
|
When you're too god-damn conservative
|
To take real chances.
|
|
Tin-eared
|
Graph-paper brained accountants
|
Instead of music fans
|
Call all the shots at giant record companies now
|
|
The lowest common denominator rules
|
Forget honesty
|
Forget creativity
|
The dumbest buy the mostest
|
That's the name of the game
|
|
But sales are slumping
|
And no one will say why
|
Could it be they put out one too many lousy records?!?
|
