complacent cattle - poi dog pondering lyrics

[intro]
here they come now
they’re gonna give it to you and how

[verse 1]
here they come now, they’re gonna give it
gonna give it to you and how
they got the tv guide and the hypnotizing eyes
and their shooting from the hip with the greased palm lip
with the what’s in, be thin, who’s hot, who’s not
be there, be square, who kissed who where? (oh)

[chorus]
the lights down the street are behind curtains
blue tv light, “it’s dallas tonight”
the lights down thе street are behind curtains

[verse 2]
just a little compassion, a littlе sincerity
please, please, gimme some honesty
i turn on the tv, i turn on the radio
hoping for a little communicado
but when i do, the sap runs forth
and moolah, moolah, moolah is the main attraction
parading adverts in multi*colors
pulverize my eyes and grab me by the collar
“we are the whitest, we are the brightest
we are the bestest than all the restest
we make you look good because we have to
and that’s a good reflection on you
and that’s a good reflection on you
we’re worried for you so you don’t have to
we’re thinking for you so you don’t have to”
[chorus]
the lights down the street are behind curtains
blue tv light, “it’s dallas tonight”
the lights down the street are behind curtains
complacent cattle watching glamorous lives

[instrumental break]

[verse 3]
and then the operas, those soapy operas
they got the homebound, oh, so spellbound
they’re so involving, they’re so dissolving
they’re so demeaning they leave me screaming
and then the sitcoms parading morons
tv movies are made for tv dinners
entertainment bred by and hormone fed by
delivered dead by the big money interest

[chorus]
the lights down the street are behind curtains
blue tv light, “it’s dallas tonight”
the lights down the street are behind curtains
complacent cattle watching glamorous lives
