One Nation under Godhas turned intoOne Nation under the
influenceof one drugTelevision, the drug of the NationBreeding

United States of unconciousnessApathetic therapeutic and
extremely addictivethe methadone metronome pumping out150
channels 24 hours a dayyou can flip through all of themand still
there's nothing worth watchingT.V. is the reason why less
than ten percent of ourNation reads books dailyWhy most people
think Central Americameans KansasSocialism means unamericanand
Apartheid is a new headache remedyabsorbed in it's world
it's so hard to find usIt shapes our minds the mostmaybe
the mother of our Nationshould remind usthat we're sitting

ignorance and feeding radiationT.V. isthe stomping ground for
political candidatesWhere bears in the woodsare chased by
Grecian Formula'dbald eaglesT.V. is mechanized
politic'sremote control over the massesco-sponsered by
environmentally safe gaseswatch for the PBS specialIt's the
perpetuation of the two party systemwhere image takes precedence
over wisdomWhere sound bite politics are served tothe fastfood
cultureWhere straight teeth in your mouthare more important than
the wordsthat come out of itRace baiting is the way to get

.Television, the drug of the NationBreeding ignorance and
feeding radiationT.V. is it the reflector or the director?Does
it imitate us or do we imitate itBecause a child watches 1500
murders before he'stwelve years old and we wonder how
we've createda Jason generation that learns to laughrather
than abhor the horrorT.V. is the place wherearmchair generals
and quarterbacks canexperience first handthe excitement of video
warfareas the theme song is sung in the backgroundSugar sweet
sitcomsthat leave us with a bad actor taste whilepop stars
metamorphosize into soda pop starsYou saw the videoYou heard the
soundtrackWell now go buy the soft drinkWell, the only cola that
I supportwould be a union C.O.L.A. (Cost of Living Allownace)On
Television.Television, the drug of the NationBreeding ignorance
and feeding radiationBack again, "New and Improved",we return to
our irregularly programmed schedulehidden cleverly between heavy
breastedbeer and car commericalsCNN ESPN ABC TNT but mostly
B.S.Where oxymoronic language like"virtually spotless" "fresh
frozen""light yet filling" and "military intelligence"have
become standardT.V. is the place where phrases are redefinedlike
"recession" to "necessary downturn""crude oil" on a beach to
"mousse""Civilian death" to "collateral damages"and being killed
by your own Armyis now called "friendly fire"T.V. is the place
where the pursuitof happiness has become the pursuit of
triviaWhere toothpaste and cars have become sex objectsWhere
imagination is sucked out of childrenby a cathode ray nippleT.V.
is the only wet nursethat would create a crippleTelevision, the
drug of the NationBreeding ignorance and feeding radiationOn
Television . . .
