They are mass produced in a slaving factory A fresh printed copy of some pseudo history Now the boys and the girls are learning to read This propaganda fueled by gluttony and greed The conglomerations are planting their seeds In the helpless minds of the American teens The people are a target to the media's blinding light Broadcast channel zombies and we tune in every night False religious concepts that infect our mental thought Like flies to steam shit their corporate products will be bought The people are a target to the media's blinding light (I have no mind, I have no thought) Broadcast channel zombies and we tune in every night (No opinions to be fought) False religious concepts that infect our mental thought (Change the channel, change my brain) Like flies to steam shit their corporate products will be bought (Someone bring me useless fame) So they put down the mags, they turn on the T.V.
