COMMERCIAL EYES

COMMERCIAL EYES
10/93

Have you got something to say?
Is this just a display?
Do you think that all is happening is a coincidence of suffering?
Just a passion parade?

Do your eyes turn away?
Bought by satellite rays
Screens may novicate to visualize
That which hurts too much to commercialize
Truths you cannot even give away

Who will tell you what you know?
Show you what you pay to show
Behind it all, my friend, you know
Is that commercial
They have to sell that commercial

What they sell is what we see
What we buy dictates what will be
All the rest, bankruptcy
It is that commercial
They must sell that commercial

Have you got something to say?
You know you speak when you pay
Man there’s nothing on TV tonight
Man, you bought what’s on TV tonight
And you always get what you pay for
