We are glad to inform you 
That what you see is your life 
Thinking forbidden (life) 
Buy your illusions (life) 
All credit cards are welcome (life) 
Thinking forbidden (life) 
Buy your illusions (life) 
(The camera eye is part of your life) 
It's been there since day one 
From the cradle to the grave 
For entertainment's sake 

And so it goes, over and over 
There's even more dream in my refrigerator 
More wit and humour in a liver slice 
Much more excitement in a plate of rice 
The TV dictatorship makes me sick 
Rather vote by phone for a brainless chick 
Than to open your wallet and give a dime 
To the local bum so he can buy a bottle of wine

Sometimes when I can't sleep at night 
I must admit I feel guilty 
I feel ashamed of human kind 
I wish I left it all behind 
Sometimes when I can't sleep at night 
I must admit that I ain't proud... 

So I grab my phone and vote for brainless chicks 
And I order dozens of useless shits 
And then I close my eyes and I fall asleep 
Thinking of how happy I will be 

So I grab my phone and vote for brainless chicks 
And I order dozens of useless shits 
Thinking of how happy I will be
