So you want to be en- entertained

Please look away, don't look away

We're not here cause we want to entertain

Go away, don't go away

Reality is the new fiction, they say

Truth is truer these days, truth is man-made

If you're here cause you want to be entertained

Go away, please go away!



Wa-oh-oh!

If your art is done

Wa-oh-oh!

Johnny get your gun!

Wa-oh-oh!

Join the rank and file!

Wa-oh-oh!

On your TV dial.



You come around looking 1984

You're such a bore, 1984!

Nostalgia, well you're using it like a whore!

It's better than before, oh it's better than before!



You come around sounding 1972

You did nothing new, 1972!

Where is the fuck you?

Where's the black and blue? (X3)



Hey!

You look around they are lying to you!

They are lying, ha, they are lying!

Can't you see it is just a silly ruse?

They are lying, I am lying too!

All you want is entertainment,

Rip me open, it's so freeing, yeah!



Don't drag me down, I'm not falling down (X2)

1-2-3, if you wanna take a shot at me, well get in line, line

1-2-3, baby i've had all my shots and I'm fine

1-2-3, If you haven't had enough of me, well get in line, line

1-2-3, yeah you deserve it now, it's all right



1-2-3, you can drown in mediocrity, it feels sublime, sublime

1-2-3, yeah it sounds like someone pushed the rewind

1-2-3, yeah, give it to me easily, my feeble mind needs time

1-2-3, yeah, make it sweet and syrupy with rhyme



Don't drag me down, I'm not falling down (Repeat)





Wa-oh-oh!

The grip of fear

Wa-oh-oh!

Is already here

Wa-oh-oh!

The lines are drawn

Wa-oh-oh!

Whose side are you on?
