One time in London I gone out for a walk
|
Past the place called Hyde Park where people talk
|
About all kinds of different gods they have their point of view
|
To anyone passing by and it's who they're talking to.
|
|
There was someone on the platform talking to the folks
|
About the TV god and all the pain that it invokes
|
It's too bright a light he said for anybody's eyes
|
If you've never seen one it's bleesing in disguise.
|
|
I moved in closer got up on my toes
|
Two men in front of me were coming to blows
|
A man was saying something about children when they're young
|
Being sacrificed that's why lullabies are being sung.
|
|
The news of the day is on all the time
|
All the latest gossip all the latest rhyme
|
You mind is you temple keep it beautiful and free
|
Don't let an egg get laid in there by something you can't see.
|
|
Pray for people he said you could feel it in the crowd
|
My thoughts began to wander but his voice was ringing loud
|
It will destroy you family your happy home is gone
|
No one can protect you from it once you turn it on.
|
|
It will lead you in to some strange pursuits
|
Lead you to the land of forbidden fruits
|
Scramble up your head and drag your brain about
|
Sometimes you got to do like Elvis did and shoot the damn thing out.
|
|
It's all been designed he said to make you loose your mind
|
And when you go back to find it there's nothing there to find
|
Every time you look at it your situations worse
|
If you feel it grabbing out for you send for the nurse.
|
|
The crowd began to riot and they grabbed hold of the man
|
There was pushing there was showing and everybody ran
|
The TV crew was there to film it they jumped right over me
|
Later on that evening I watched it on TV.
