Mediacracy

Lies leading lives
The leash is on your eyes
By their design
Your hope controls your mind
You won’t see the signs (looking back)
Until it’s done (looking back)
What we have become
They’re not elected by the people democratically
These pied pipers run a system of mediacracy
Living for the minute just standing in place
Running in circles just trying to keep pace
Dancing to the tune that keeps the rodents in line
Trying to sedate the automation of their minds
Closing thought with a broad debate
Teaching the people how to subjugate
They’ve convinced you all that you’ll be doing just fine
If you all comply

Turn your gears
With pressure from your peers
The world premieres
Our worship profiteers
They televise (looking back)
To win your hearts (looking back)
And you play your part
We have devised this evolution of astrology
We watch the stars and follow signs of mediacracy
Another sucker every minute getting bitten by the snake
Silicone serpent with the botox face
Piping out a tune to keep the rodents in line
As they navigate the maze of all the hatred they design
Choking down their pills to medicate
Our heads so filled with thoughts that we can’t think straight
Wake and bake and take the cake that they’ve designed
To make you comply

The sheep are talking in their sleep to people thinking they’re awake
Messengers of love deliver packages of hate
Dancing like the puppet the bottom of the line
Facing Mother Nature with the vision of the blind
Forcing out what they can’t sedate
Weakened people overcompensate
Protest signs and picket lines to sell divide
Until we all comply
