500 channels of a day-dream stimulation
|
helps me to resent my life and raise my expectations.
|
Locked into re-runs, your memories repeating,
|
and all your ideals seem so self-defeating.
|
For you and yours, the pepsi generation,
|
and when you're discontent, you change the T.V. station,
|
And when you hate your life, no qualtities redeeming,
|
a million brainwashed zombies will always be heard screaming...
|
|
And when there is no hope,
|
"I'll smoke some crack, I'll shoot some dope!"
|
When theres no enemies,
|
"I sit and stare at my T.V.
|
and in my ignorance,
|
I'll be a slave and sycophant!"
|
|
And in a perfect world devoid of all temptations,
|
the good leftover crizack could unite the nations.
|
But now the war machines are mapping our destructions
|
with poisons overflowing in the chemical seductions.
|
|
And when there is no hope,
|
"I'll smoke some crack, I'll shoot some dope!"
|
When theres no enemies,
|
"I sit and stare at my T.V.
|
and in my ignorance,
|
I'll be a slave and sycophant!"
|
|
With my credit and my bank,
|
my mind will draw a blank.
|
I'll block out history,
|
and stare at my T.V.
|
For me there is no way.
|
500 channels waste my life away, away...
