Expiring Minds Want to Know!
Lights, camera, action - cue the latest distraction
It's a 24/7 free press inaction
A carnival of pernicious attractions
It's a three-ring circus in the name of balance
Insulate isolate collectively decompensate
The television set is more than ready to accommodate
Politicians bloviate, the lap dogs salivate for the
Advocates and surrogates of hypocrite candidates
The news cycle spins it again
Over and over again
Manufacturing Consent, kindling for the discontent
Revisionism, patriotism, cover for the worst intent
Venerate corroborate keep their talking heads on straight
Follow the dollars and find no sense
Banalyze
Paralyzed
Corporatize (Corporate ties)
Privatized
Commercialize (Commercial lies)
Insight (Incite)
Hollowing minds toward their ends
Minimizing dissent
Holding your face to the fire
Expiring minds want to know!
Irate, inane, inflamed
Sources conform
This is the new reality
No substitutions
Irate, inane, inflamed
Sources conform
This is the new reality
(Pay no mind to) the disillusion
The dissolution
Report distort purport to be objective while just toeing the bottom line
Consort exhort support the heads of state calculating obviating
Dictate conflate obfuscate misstate disseminate
Cowering sycophantic leeches keeping their thumbs on the pulse of a rotting corps
Tune in, tune out, commercial break
Tune in, turn off, can't look away
Buy in, buy out, two minutes hate
Tune in, tune out, commercial break
Tune in, tune out, it's too late
Turn off, it's too late, it's too late
Hollowing minds toward their ends
Hollowing minds
It's a 24/7 free press inaction
A carnival of pernicious attractions
It's a three-ring circus in the name of balance
Insulate isolate collectively decompensate
The television set is more than ready to accommodate
Politicians bloviate, the lap dogs salivate for the
Advocates and surrogates of hypocrite candidates
The news cycle spins it again
Over and over again
Manufacturing Consent, kindling for the discontent
Revisionism, patriotism, cover for the worst intent
Venerate corroborate keep their talking heads on straight

Tune in, tune out, it's too late

Hollowing minds toward their ends
Hollowing minds
