Is incorrigible rust proof, do I read the signs right
What are we looking at here?
Trivia on the phone, at my work and in my home
The oral culture is here

There's violence in the cinema, expletives on the TV
Gloom and doom in newspapers all for reality
Everything they want to know is found in soaps and game shows
No value in the family, the library stands empty

What do they teach them in schools these days
Society, who wants to know?
What's the hidden agenda in the question of gender
Are we all better off on our own?

It's personal when four headlights are driving up my backside
For body's which must leak air, after all those piercings
It's survival of the fittest and no tolerance of weakness
But why do they look so ill after jogging?

They can hunt for Salem witches, blame immigrants for loss of riches
But we're all guilty of wrongdoing, it's just a question of degree
So when we point the finger at those who download paedolphilia
What images do we choose when we indulge in fantasy
