You're in a trance don't want to dance You sit in silence glued to your TV
Your morbid stare can cut the air Like mutant ninja turtle blades to me
Apathy lobotomy in mutual synonymy Personified by your by you and your stare
You symbolize my other self It makes me sick it mars my health Such energy it takes to take a chance
You're in a rut you've turned to dust You'll drag me in if only you can reach me
It's in my power to resist It don't require any fist My own free will is strong enough to set me free
Robotized sterilized is what I see in your eyes Keep away from me with your non-ideas
You'd cut me down until I drown and sacrifice ideals for MTV
The hidden masses are just that They've no respect for individuality
They sit and gaze at the latest rave A radioactive screen controls their psyche
Mass media mass hypnosis is the corporate diagnosis
You can make a better life abolishing your every strife Just walk away from it and take a chance
