Oh, TV stop depressing us

give us a specimen grin.

Everything you say is so disappointing,

give us something

that could be worth wanting.



I know what you want,

you want something to cheer you up,

you want to sit in al big field under hte sun,

I know what you want,

you want to think you´re having fun

as you stare into barrel of a gun.



Sometimes it seems life´s so ordinary,

never hitting the mark.

We´re missing stiches in this close-knit

community, they´re tearing all our houses

down to build a shopping theme park.



They know what we want,

we want something to cheer us up,

we want to sit in a big field under the sun.

They know what we want we

want to think we´re having fun

as we stare into the barrel of the gun.





The writing´s on the wall

and it´s making my skin crawl.

But while Rome burns

they´re fiddling the figures,

we warm our hands in the flames.

They say it´s luxury

just stay down on your knees,

they toss us a cherry

as they´re eating our cake.



Because they know what we want,

we want something to cheer us up,

we want to sit in a field under the sun.

They know what we want,

we want to think we´re having fun

as we stare into the barrel of a gun
