Chumbawamba - Coca-Colanisation Lyrics
Bulletin:"Your version of the riots in Cape TownComes second hand from meChewing and spewing this revolutionFor popular TVAll your opinions are carefully chosenBy what we'll let you seeTelevised crap dressed up as fact -your soap realityWe only want a chance to show the Editor's sideOf struggle in the newsCloser and closer to the state's eye viewAnd further from the truthPush a microphone to the mouth of this youthBewildered and confusedMisreported, distorted, misquotedA ready-made victim to be usedAnd we'll quote you on things that you never saidPut this pencil to your headAnd kill your revolution dead..."TV tells us what to be and what to say and what to doHow to act and how to lie but never question why?Fighting to stop the mass-deceptionFighting to scrap the pass lawsFighting to end the misuse of landFighting to close down diamond minesFighting to feed their hungry mouthsFighting to change the world..here, we sit on the fenceBuilt by distance and enforced by liesIs a full stomach all it takesTo keep us pacified?
