its your window to the outside
 a melancholy dream
 a medium upon which you build reality
 this episodic currency
 that everybody needs
 somebodies delivery lulls you to sleep
 the man behind the weather map
 the editor in chief
 they control two worlds
 power and disease
 and you cannot supress you curiosity
 but see it's only entertainment
 superficial urgency
 posterboard mentality
 only entertainemnt
 tightly constrained
 the buzz that remains
 is the story of how we run our lives
 many our the people poor and suffering
 from the lack of coverage
 from the transmission beam
 and if it ever gets there
 you'll be offended too
 'cause you cannot distinguish
 chicanery from truth
 see it's only entertainment
 a superficial episode
 as life continues to unfold
 only entertainment
 controlled and copied
 they've planted the seed
 that sprouts into your picture of the world
 can't someone protect me (turn away, turn away)
 from this electron beam?
 hey you, Mr. FCC
 have you no advice for me
