There is a war going on for your mind |
|
Media mavens mount surgical strikes |
|
From Trapper Keeper collages |
|
And online magazine racks |
|
Cover girl cutouts throw up pop-up ads |
|
Infecting victims with silicone shrapnel |
|
Worldwide passenger pigeons deploy paratroopers |
|
Now, it's raining pornography, lovers take shelter |
|
Post-production debutantes |
|
Pursue you in NASCAR chariots |
|
They construct ransom letters from biblical passages |
|
And bleed mascara into the holy water supplies |
|
There is a war going on for your mind |
|
Industry insiders slang test tube babies |
|
To corporate crack heads |
|
They flash logos and blast ghettos |
|
Their embroidered neckties say, "Stop snitchin'" |
|
Conscious rappers and whistleblowers get stitches |
|
Made of acupuncture needles |
|
And marionette strings |
|
There is a war going on for your mind |
|
Professional wrestlers and vice presidents |
|
Want you to believe them |
|
The desert sky is their blue screen |
|
They superimpose explosions, they shout at you |
|
Pay no attention to the men behind the barbed curtain |
|
Nor the craters beneath the draped flags |
|
Those hoods are there for your protection |
|
And meteors these days are the size of corpses |
|
There's a war going on for your mind |
|
We are the insurgents |
