MTV

Post by Scutley »

Is anyone sick of MTV not having any music hardly ever anymore. If MTV is called "Music Televison" they is should play music. If not then call it CTV= Crappy Televison, or RTV= Reality Televson NOT MTV.

That's profound.
This is my story both humble and true,
Take it to pieces and mend it with glue.

fun fun fun in the fluffy chair, flame up the herb woof down some beer.

Hi! I'm your video dj.
I always talk like i'm wigged out on quaaludes
i wear a black baseball jacket everywhere i go.

my job is to hunt and destroy
what's left of your imagination
by feeding you endless doses
of sugar-coated mindless garbage.

so don't create! be sedate!
be a vegetable at home
and thwack on that dial!
if we have our way even you will believe
that this is the future of rock and roll!

MTV...get off the air!

How far will you go?
How low will you stoop?
To tranquilize our minds with your sugar-coated swill.

You've turned rock and roll rebellion
into Pat Boone sedation
making sure nothing gets left to the imagination

M.T.V. get off the...
M.T.V. get off the...
M.T.V. get off the air.
Get off the air!

See the latest rejects from the muppet show
wag their tits and their dicks
as they lip-synch on screen.
There's something I don't like
about a band who always smiles
another tax write-off
for some schmuck who doesn't care

M.T.V. Get off the...
M.T.V. Get off the...
M.T.V. Get off the air.
Get off the air!

And so it was
our beloved corporate gods
claimed they created rock video.
Allowing it to sink as low in one year
as commercial TV has in 25.
"It's the new frontier," they say,
"It's wide open, anything can happen!"
But you've got a lot of nerve
to call yourself a pioneer
when you're too god-damn conservative
to take real chances.

Tin-eared,
graph-paper brained accountants
instead of music fans
call all the shots at giant record companies now
the lowest common denominator rules.
Forget honesty,
forget creativity,
The dumbest buy the mostest,
that's the name of the game

But sales are slumping,
and no one will say why
could it be they put out one too many lousy records?!?

M.T.V. - Get off the air!
NOW!
MTV...get off the air!

Every now and then I fall out into open air just to feel the wind, rain and everything.
And though the hum and sway gets me down
, I'll find the way to peace and openness.
