Lyrics

The Media's At War

(Verse 1)

I miss the days when the cowboy
In the white hat was the hero
Now the bad guy is the good guy
And the good guy is a zero
Shoot 'em is still the rage
In the games and in the movies
But the folks who make the billions
Want to kill the men on duty

(Chorus)

The media's at war
With religion on TV
Don't pray to God in public
'Cause now that's obscenity
Unless it's for a football guy
Or a natural disaster
But no mention of the Bible
Or life in the hereafter

(Verse 2)

The world is topsy turvy
Everything has a new meaning
We're told men are getting pregnant
We must stop Pisa from leaning
Don't dare let the founding fathers
Faith or freedom pass your lips
You'll end up in the dungeon
Facing border guard with whips

(Chorus)

The media's at war
With religion on TV
Don't pray to God in public
'Cause now that's obscenity
Unless it's for a football guy
Or a natural disaster
But no mention of the Bible
Or life in the hereafter

(Bridge)

No place for masculinity
No jail time for the thugs and thieves
There will be no more pedophiles
They were minor attracted people all the
while----Who knew?

(Chorus)

The media's at war
With religion on TV
Don't pray to God in public
'Cause now that's obscenity
Unless it's for a football guy
Or a natural disaster
But no mention of the Bible
Or life in the hereafter

The media's at war
The media's at war
The media's at war
The media's at war....with me
