Well, you hear it on the radio
And you see it on the TV screen
By the time you're ready to turn out the light
You may be lucky to get some sleep
And you just don't realise
What is the truth and what is the lie
Its just amazing what the power of suggestion can do
Programmed to receive
We are programmed to receive
We are programmed to receive
We cannot feel
We cannot feel
Processed information
Communication of a different kind
Manipulation is a part of the plan
Future conditioning and not the mind
Well, it's the same old situation
The same old picture in a different frame
And though the grass always seems to be greener
The perception still remains
Programmed to receive
We are programmed to receive
We are programmed to receive
We cannot feel
We cannot feel
It's something to think about
All your horizons wiped out
In every way
Each single day
In every day
Programmed to receive
We are programmed to receive
We are programmed to receive
We cannot feel
We cannot feel
