I can see you supervising,
Holding down your thumb,
It's no wonder crime is rising,
When we beg for crumbs,
You can pride yourself by the goods on your shelf,
You can treat me like I'm dumb,
You created a nation,
A whole generation,
Who buy your shit for fun,
Television twists opinion,
Make my body numb,
I feel sick when I see people,
Staring blank like mannequins,
You can pride yourself by the goods on your shelf,
You can treat me like I'm dumb,
You created a nation,
A whole generation,
Who buy your shit for fun,
There's a camera on the corner watching my front door,
Our big brother watches on and holds his loaded gun,
You can pride yourself by the goods on your shelf,
You can treat me like I'm dumb,
You created a nation,
A whole generation,
Who buy your shit for fun,
There's a camera on the corner watching my front door
