Lyrics
UNHOLY TRINITY
We all dance to the beat of the teletype
We all dance to the tune of the media hype
Pulled out my VISA, traded in my black and white
I?m watching total deception in color tonight
On CBS and NBC
Don?t forget the good old boys out at ABC
We?re bowing down to the unholy trinity on our TV
They say that Christians are dangerous radicals
And they claim no bias, they say they are apolitical
And freedom of the press is doing fine?you?ll see
They?ll put you on any time-long as you will agree
With CBS and NBC
Don?t forget the good old boys out at ABC
We?re bowing down to the unholy trinity on our TV
The fourth branch of the government
But tell me who elected you
You?ve spoon-fed a whole nation
Your Godless dogma, humanistic point of view
You got us thinkin? what you want us,
Thinkin? what you want us, thinkin? what you want us to
If you?re a socialist they?re giving you lots of time
(Seeing is believing so they show you what they want you to see))
If you?re a feminist they?re making? sure you?re doing fine
(Watch what you believe)
And if you sell porno they?ll put you on late at night
(They?re so pluralistic-show the world through realistic eye)
If you?re a Christian?brother kiss it goodbye
(Me oh me oh my)
?Cause CBS and NBC
Don?t forget the good old boys out at ABC
They put a spin on everything you see on your TV
They?re cashing in on the souls of you and me on our TV
We?re bowing down to the unholy trinity on our TV
