B.G.K. LYRICS

"TV News (Distorted Views)"

The only reliable source of information
For the biggest part of the nation
That's the news on TV
Entertainment for families

Reliable - re-lie-able
They lie again and again
About who's the freedom fighter
And who's the terrorist
Wars, revolutions, and communists

Distorted view
It's not your TV set
It's the CBS news
The same company
That's selling guns to both parties

The newscaster is a star
He's such a lovable chap
She's cute and very female
Wears a lot of makeup

So distract your minds with
Some freak accident or mass-murder
Whatever happens far away
Is no longer part of reality

I hear some miners are one strike
Be it union leaders or workers
Shouting for the right to work
The right to work for us
The right to be exploited

We'll let you know what we want you to know
And that's all you'll know

There are no riots anywhere
And everything is under control
We manipulate the public
And politicians too
They'll do anything for support
We make them or break them
Scandals, murder, blackmail
All ain't nothing new
