Lyrics
[Intro]
Don't touch that dial
[Verse 1]
Television screen
Your face turning green
Don't listen to the news
They don't know what you hear
They never make it clear
They like it if you stay confused
[Chorus 1]
Propaganda time, the official line
You're hungry, you get fed
Everlasting smile
You must admire their style
But they're just a talking head
[Verse 2]
Television voice
Don't give you any choice
You only hear the man
Don't take them in
You don't know where they been
Cause it's a complex plan
[Chorus 2]
They keep you nice and quiet
Even control your diet
You're hungry, you get fed
Teach you to be meek

Till all you are is weak
Till you're just a talking head
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Television scream
This ought to be a dream
Remember what I say
Don't be hypnotised by sugarcoated lies
Don't switch it on today
[Chorus 3]
It's the way things are
From that pickle jar
You're hungry, you get fed
But if you play the game
You become the same
Another talking head
[Bass Solo]
