whose god is in the t.v.?
 and what do you say to the man
 who blames the world on t.v.?
 they don't even know how to sing my song
 but they won't even try it
 with me  with me  with me
 who is standing over playing like
 the teacher
 harnessing the learned
 who try but can't leave her
 I want to beg the liars to lay down
 their sirens
 that play like the angels
 to my deep desire
 free my son
 let him walk right through the rain
 free my son
 make him waterboy
 free my son
 there he stands down on the shore
 free my son
 what do you say to the man
 who treats her like a mother?
 and what do you say to the man
 who treats him like a father?
 "come and see my heart, come inside
 and learn"?
 "come and see my soul, it's like yours,
 I say it's just like yours"?
 who is making over
 idolizing princes
 banishing the dreamers with
 barbed-wire fences
 and telling all the children who run to
 her feet
 that they have no vision
 and love's all diseased
 free my son
