Kill Your Television

Verse 1
Kill your television
I promise you won't go to jail
They'll be no cops, lawyers or juries involved
Smash the remote control into pieces
Throw the remains out of your door

Verse 2
Kill your television
I promise you won't be charged with any crime
I assure you, it's not against the law
You have every right to destroy it

Bridge
Cable, satellite and network TV are the real enemies
Don't you see?
They have concocted a devious plan
To rob you of everything you could have

Chorus 1
All of who you are is not comedy shows
You're not the neurotic, stupid or geeky ones
You're an individual
Don't become brainwashed
Kill your television

Chorus 2
All of who you are is not drama shows
Your life is not a superhero saga
You're an individual
Don't be deceived
Kill your television

Chorus 3
All of who you are is not newsmagazines
Your life will not be viewed on air
You're an individual
Be familiar with your rights
Kill your television
Stand up for something or you'll fall for anything
The time is now
Do what you have to do
Kill your television
It must be silenced
Its existence is killing you
