LAGWAGON LYRICS

"Tragic Vision"

In this faltering nation the future belongs
To the children in school, there's something wrong
Sixth grader on crack handgun overflowing in his hands
Now he is just further demand
We search for the source
And still that child is left watching
Inhumanity, bloodshed
As the tele-violence feeds his head

Only if he knew
The consequence of greed
A conscious state of mind
T.V. is not reality

Never a victim the role model said
Bang bang, the bad guy is dead
Always a rockstar on eMpty T.V.
The lesson complete, now the child has needs
Of competition they bleed
Oh beautiful for bills of green
Never mind spacious skies overhead
Bleed the earth and butter your bread

Only if he knew
The consequence of greed
A conscious state of mind
T.V. is not reality

Child turns on T.V., what does he see?
Nature of man, dishonesty
That child grows old, story be told
As he sits behind bars and his soul grows cold

Only if he knew
The consequence of greed
A conscious state of mind
T.V. is not reality
