Mental Corrosion Genocide

(Turn on, Tune in, Drop out)

stay tuned to that station

sit tight in that chair

do not attempt to think for yourself

be passive, controlled, unaware

sell your soul to the set

stay attuned immune to time

whilst a modern electric cancer

pulls apart your mind

cheap synthetic fantasies

will creep into your rooms

your irradiated lounge room suites

shall be your mental tombs

slowly you’ll reject reality

your mind will fill with shit

puerile prime time neural manure

the latest hollywood hit

sell your radiated soul to the set

remote control your everyday

be a part of this plastic reality

there will be no other way

let its leeching glow

fill your head and heart

stay tuned to that station

while it rips your life apart
