I don't have to tell you things are bad

Everybody knows things are bad

The dollar buys a nickel's worth

Banks are going bust

Shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter

We know the air is unfit to breathe and our food is unfit to eat

And we sit, watching our TVs

While some local newscaster tells us

And sixty-three violent crimes

As if that's the way it's supposed to be

We know things are bad...

Worse than bad... They're crazy!

It's like everything everywhere is going crazy

So we don't go out any more

We sit in our house

And slowly the world we're living in is getting smaller

And all we say is, please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms

Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials

And I won't say anything

Just leave us alone...

Well, I'm not going to leave you alone...

I want you to get MAD!

Hypnotised by a spreading viral sydrome

Sitting silent in a cyber prison, eyes got spinning spirals in'em

We're spending our lives pretending, idealising idols singing
