I.V.-TV

(album: The Beaver Meat Cleaver Beat - 1990)

Black sun came changed our name
Made our lives this simple stain
Drove the children from their chores
Handcrafted housewives into whores

Society snake it ate our brains
Injected poison in our veins
TV minds hip-swing grinds
Faces cracked and filled with lines
Black sun came and changed our name
Made our lives this simple stain

Intravenous TV feeds
Bedroom violence all he sees
Ride the lightning to the sky
Stab the clouds and watch them cry
Black sun came and changed our name
Made our lives this simple stain

All we do is smite
For what we think is right
Sound of mind bereft of sight
Denial taking human life

Clouds go by children run
Gulls do nosedives in the sun
Water falling from a spout
Into wanting thirsty mouths

Black sun came and changed our name
Made our lives this simple stain
Made our lives this simple stain
Made our lives this simple stain

All we do is smite
For what we think is right
Sound of mind bereft of sight
Denial taking human life

All we do is smite
For what we think is right
Sound of mind bereft of sight
Endless blinding cathode light
