Level Down
There's a huge plotInternational ployStealing our remaining bribesOf self-esteem and self-respect.It took the best placeIn the centre of the houseTo always be in sight of allAnd share the joys of family life.There's a crook by the fireside,A cathode ray tubeThat stole our endless winter nights,Even our quarrels and our lulls,Replaced my patience gamesBy mercantile showsAnd stole the pastimes never hadBy lack of chance to be revealed.There's a leech in each home,A sucking square eyeThat drains our poor exhausted brainOf its last germs of liveliness.And when our head is empty,Then the ground is readyThe brain-washing may beginFor it's now useless to resist.Letras de cancionesWhat's up tonightOn the twaddle-box ?Level down...Why don't we kick the peeper out ?What's the use ?It puts thoughts in my headAnd makes me wonder who I am,It muddles up my lifeWith what it thinks my life should be,It stands now as a linkBetween the common herdAnd feed our vacant staresWith daily lots of silliness.There's a liar that stealsOur moments of silence,The ticking of the passing timeThe mesmerising crackling flames.And we, the moron crowdAre wasting, day by day,The greatest blessing of our lives,The chance we have to feel the time.There's a spy in my house,There is a neon-peeperThat keeps my attentionAnd keeps me from thinking.There is a moraliserThat speaks to me with simple wordsAnd knows exactly what to doTo keep me watching silently.
