All the News That's Fit to Sing
There's a war on for your mind, it's right there on your screen Watch the pundits ramble on, define the terms and set the scene Hear the pundits say this is the best that it can get There may be room for improvement, just stay tuned in to your set Just stay tuned in to your set, they'll tell you all you need to know If it's anything important they say they'll have it on the show
There's a war on for the planet, there's a war on for your mind The outcome of the struggle is the fate of humankind You can drink the Kool-aid, buy the goods that you are sold Watch the talking heads, think the way that you are told Think the way they tell you, hold fast to the lies Or stick your finger in the wind and trust your ears and eyes
Turn off your TV or you won't learn a thing Gather round, I'll give you all the news that's fit to sing Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Some democracies are tyrannies, you can hear them say While some dictatorships are friendly, they'll tell us every day If your passion is pro baseball you can surely get the score But if you want to know what's happening, walk outside your door See the oil train exploding, see the black smoke in the sky See the kids under the bridge, see the limo passing by
It's a question for the moment, a question for the ages For the businessmen and prisoners rattling their cages For the businessmen and prisoners, be they lost or found Upon the rising oceans or cracked dry desert ground It's a choice that we're all faced with, or so it seems to me I don't have all the answers but I can guarantee
