You read the paper, watch the news and think Ive got some new for you my friend That headline that you read, the story that broke Was a scandle and a scam, a political master stroke They tell you what they want you to hear So close your eyes and open your ears
Its easier that way when you dont have to Think for your self you say I read it all in black and white It was on my TV they were telling me just what to believe I tell you no lies all the while theyre tellin you lies
Everyday you and me, we see what we are shown Its hard to scratch below The people at the top, are hidden far from veiw Theyre not goin to show their faces To the likes of me and you You never see them on the street Always see the things that they do
They know they can get away and no price is too
Its very simple its in black and white Its on your TV we got every thing you need to believe I tell you no lies and all the while they are telling you lies
