Squeegee
The media and its influence on the public.

All I am is just a tangled up puppet
Someone who gets the strings pulled
They tell you what to do, and how to feel
Corporate America not caving in

Someone who gets the strings pulled
Always listening to be told what is good
Corporate America not caving in
It remains the same

Always listening to be told what is good
Commercialization shows us “the way”
It remains the same
Perfect beauty, perfect life

Commercialization shows us “the way”
The advertisements pounded into our brains
Perfect beauty, perfect life
They don't want us to squeegee the third eye

The advertisements pounded intro our brains
They put us into a false euphoria
They don't want us to squeegee the third eye
They're afraid we'll see their bullshit

They put us in a false euphoria
They tell you what to do, and how to feel
They're afraid we'll see their bullshit
All I am is just a tangled up puppet
