Across the desert in the back of my mind I can see the dirt cracking I can smell the shit frying As the dirty demons who dwell in this place Try to drag me down to their awful disgrace And I promised I wouldn't go back there again I wish I'd never turned my back on that black television They got the blood and the guns and the sex in all places With the horse-for-sale bodies And nobody-cares faces 10,000 ways to speak a false word And if you ain't got money Your voice won't be heard But if you feel weary sit back in your chair Up your IV to a fat sack of black television
