[Verse 1]
Flat top intervention
Bringing home the new invention
See it there in pieces on the ground
A television war between the cynics and the saints
Just flip the dial and that's whose side you're on
Sleeping on the White House lawn ain't never changed a thing
Just look at all the washed out hippie dreams
[Chorus]
It's fallin' all around us
Is this some kind of joke they're trying to pull on us?
Fallin' all around us
I turn my head off for a while
[Verse 2]
Tabloid generation's lost
Choking on its fear
Used to be that's all we had to fеar
Our conscience keeps us quiet whilе the crooked love to speak
There's knowledge wrapped in blankets on the street
Visionary coward says that anger can be power
As long as there's a victim on TV
[Chorus]
It's fallin' all around us
Is this some kind of joke they're trying to pull on us?
Fallin' all around us
I turn my head off for a while
[Bridge]
And my dirty dreams all come alive on my TV screen
And assassination plots show me what I haven't got
Show me what I love or who I'm supposed to be
Show me everything I need
Show it all to me
Show it all to me
[Chorus]
And it's fallin' all around us
Is this some kind of joke they're trying to pull on us?
Fallin' all around us
I turn my head off for a while
[Outro]
And it's fallin' all around us
It's fallin' all around us
