VERSE 1
How many slurs are you allowed to use?
How many drugs are you allowed to abuse?
How many sheep are you allowed to confuse?
How many lives are you allowed to lose?
You watch the box, but never question it
You have a dispute, but never settle it
You never pick apart the stories you hear
Cave in to manufactured crises and fears
CHORUS
Raised by television
Rattling your vision
It’s now your mission
To widen the division
VERSE 2
Fantasy, reality, what’s the difference?
Fucked up adult, why the bitterness?
Nostalgic for your lost brain cells
And your depleted creative wells
Nothing wrong with a good story
Nothing wrong with living the glory
As long as you think for yourself
And not let your life spiral to hell
CHORUS
Raised by television
Rattling your vision
It’s now your mission
To widen the division
BRIDGE
Question everything
The lyrics you sing
The shows you watch
The life you botch
VERSE 3
Pick up a book and learn how to hook
The audience in for more than a look
Go outside and play Seek and Hide
Jump on the rollercoaster, go for a ride
Swim in a lake for as long as you take
Drive around town to musical sounds
When you go back to the glowing box
Keep your wits, be crazy like a fox
CHORUS
Raised by television
Rattling your vision
It’s now your mission
To widen the division
