Switching On ('90) digitally remastered from original recordings by Herb Garden. Digital remasters by Martin Nicholls. Produced by Herb Garden, 2013. ℗ Herb Garden 2014.
Yeh, flypost it - around the world
Flypost it - around the world
Who's the fool who claims an alibi?
No, no, no - just watching the money patrol
TV image - put your head in the sand
No, no, no - is this the way to evolve?
All the signs say 'Buy it!' 'Sell it!'
Enterprise they say's the by-word, BUT
Hesitate my world's in fever
And neon banners display this order.
(Switching on to new religion)
Switch on. Switch on. DIRTY MONEY
Broadcast it - around the world
Broadcast it - around the world
The intravenous image broadcast
No, no, no - they're pushing for mind-control
And these visions talk with forked tongues
No, no, no - is this the way to evolve?
This media-age of forced aggression
Fuels big tastes, creates compulsions, BUT
Hesitate my world's in fever
Organic matters have no factor.
(Switching on to new religion)
Switch on. Switch on. DIRTY MONEY
TV … insanity … We're talking …
TV … insanity … We're talking …
Necessity makes us players all.
No, no, no - just watching the money patrol
The new Messiah they say’s in our pocket.
No, no, no. Is this the way to evolve?
You can't defy, our sucked-in order
This TV forced a new religion, BUT
Hesitate my world's in fever
And the power has no flower.
(Switching on to new religion)
Switch on. Switch on. DIRTY MONEY.
