Every Twenty Minutes, Twenty Four Seven

All those voices trying to influence
Words being used like cannonade on a battlefield
Bombastic, acidic, fiery, snide
Trivial, superficial, inane, trite
Everybody wanting you to believe they're right

Giving us a choice of piss or vinegar
On tonight's tossed salad
Repetition to hammer it in
Repeat it again and again and again
Repetition to hammer it in
Repeat it again and again and again

Our way is the only way, their way is wrong
How can you possibly listen to them 
You don't know where they've been
All the wrong schools, all the wrong clubs
Worshiping the wrong god and playing dirty pool

We'll give you hope, we'll make you okay
Don't listen to those others they only tell lies
You can tell by our smiles we aren't like the others 
If you'd only open your mind, if you'd only see
Trust us unquestioningly, we're your true friends

Giving us a choice of piss or vinegar
On tonight's tossed salad
Repetition to hammer it in
Repeat it again and again and again
Repetition to hammer it in
Repeat it again and again and again

24/7
