Flat top intervention. Bringing home the new invention. See it there in pieces on the ground. A television war between the cynics and the saints. Flip the dial and that's whose side you're on. Sleeping on the white house lawn ain't never changed a thing. Look at all the washed out hippie dreams. And it's falling all around us. Is this some kind of joke they're trying to pull on us?. Falling all around us. I'll turn my head off for a while. Tabloid generation's lost. Choking on it's fear. Used to be that's all we had to fear. conscience keeps us quiet while the crooked love to speak. There's knowledge wrapped in blankets on the streets. A visionary coward says that anger can be power. As long as there's a victim on tv. And it's falling all around us. Is this some kind of joke they're trying to pull on us. Falling all around us. I'll turn my head off for a while. And my dirty dreams all come alive. On my TV screen. And assassination plots. Show me what I haven't got. Show me what I love and who I'm supposed to be. Show me everything I need. Show it all to me. And it's falling all around us. Is this some kind of joke they're trying to pull on us?. Falling all around us. I'll turn my head off for a while.
