The airwaves are one-eyed and biased
When they tell you of free speech, they're liars
If you form an opinion that's not in dominion, then you're an oddball and should be kept quiet
The voice you try hard to deny us, With methods from subtle to callous
If these voices are rare, then why should you even care to ensure the same mouths are silenced?
Free speech from the speechless to the listeners of the easy
Radio shows that don't tread toes and mask your woes when needs be
Rock 'n' Roll has lost it's soul and now everything is diluted
Bands with fans, big money plans
Your pockets emptied, looted
They're liars... with wires... they're liars, they're liars
Edison's machine, free fix, anyone?
...And don't it make you scream?
Thought control for young and old, is free thought just a dream?
Marconi, Baird... a world ensnared... and to think it would come to this
Any invention with good intention, used to turn your brains to pith
Game show hosts and endless soaps become the new reality
Quellers of hopes with cathode dopes for folks to blind to see
Consumerism, voyeurism...you just can't get enough
Antenna head and already dead... from the fucking neck up
Captivated, manipulated, but embarrassed to admit
Ninety nine channels of pointless flannel... and mostly full of shit
When they tell you of free speech they're liars
