The Static Age Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Can you hear the sound of the static noise
Blastin' out in stereo?
Cater to the class and the paranoid
Music to my nervous system
Advertisin' love and religion
Murder on the airwaves
Slogans on the brink of corruption

[Pre-Chorus]
Visions of blasphemy, war and peace
Oh-oh, screamin' at you

[Chorus]
I can't see a thing in the video
I can't hear a sound on the radio
In stereo in the static age

[Verse 2]
Billboard on the rise in the dawn's landscape
Workin' your insanity
Tragic à la madness and concrete
Coca Cola execution
Conscience on a cross, and your heart's in a vice
Squeezin' out your state of mind
Are what you own that you cannot buy

[Pre-Chorus]
What a fuckin' tragedy, strategy
Oh-oh, screamin' at you

[Chorus]
I can't see a thing in the video
I can't hear a sound on the radio
In stereo in the static age
I can't see a thing in the video
I can't hear a sound on the radio
In stereo in the static age

[Bridge]
Hey, hey, it's the static age
Well, this is how the west was won
Hey, hey, it's the static age millennium

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
All I wanna know is a god-damned thing
Not what's in the medicine
All I wanna do is I want to breathe
Batteries are not included
What's the latest way that a man can die?
Screamin' "Hallelujah" (Hallelujah)
Singin' out "the dawn's early light"

[Pre-Chorus]
The silence of the rotten, forgotten
Oh-oh, screamin' at you

[Chorus]
I can't see a thing in the video
I can't hear a sound on the radio
In stereo in the static age
I can't see a thing in the video
I can't hear a sound on the radio
In stereo in the static age
I can't see a thing in the video (Woah-oh)
I can't hear a sound on the radio (Woah-oh)
In stereo in the static age
I can't see a thing in the video (Woah-oh)
I can't hear a sound on the radio (Woah-oh)
In stereo in the static age

[Outro]

“The Static Age” is about taking in every sort of advertisement and things that you don’t need and just sort of defacing them, because a billboard that is trying to sell you something is sort of static. I think the static is like a theme throughout the whole record where it’s like you’re being, uh,...
