(Parsons/Bators)
lasers probe the streets curfew set at eight
police with lib glass back search for those out late
jackboots of the right marching in the fear
if it don't affect your life you don't really care
you don't care (we don't care)
firemen on strike watch the young girl burn
food riots start no one ever learns
talkin 'bout a time when they all did
talkin 'bout a world where they all lived
they don't care (we don't care)
it's a little bit frightening
now that no one came
now that no one saw
now that no one's here
television talks everyone believes
the news must be true the telly won't deceive
turn on BBC channel 1 or 2
watching television while it's watching you
