Talking Heads

Spin it around Turn it out Media infiltration Rising up in my bed To enter the rat race another day Laying down in my bed To enter rest and peace All I hear in between Is Talking Heads Always competing Never retreating Event when they have been decapitated by their foe Behind the stage curtains Waring Heads climb into bed together When they portray the character of sheriff of Nottingham Oppressing the Peasants Empowering The Privileged Spin it around Turn it out Media infiltration Talking Heads competing To sell you their vision of the American dream If you will surrender the helm to the ship They will sail you to the promise land When you wake up from their dream land Reality will open your eye to the night mare they have created Where they have sacrificed your God,freedom,prosperity On the alter of human utopia Turn off the media infiltration It’s time stop looking to the Talking Heads to provide a hopeful future for us It’s time to call upon God to forgive our sins and heal our land Written By Stephen J.
