the power
It takes peace to fight the power

I am the TV newsreader
Yet I yearn to tell the truth
So I look directly at the camera 
And ignore the autocue

the metronome in your heart
It's smoke and it's mirrors
Until the auto-cue starts
Then the dry ice comes
And we start sucking our thumbs on the TV
And the joy

making me sick

Jacky cracks when she isn't on stage
See the effects of sexual neglect
No script, no crew, no auto-cue
No audience telling her what

Took no notice of you until
I got to know you when I was home ill
I had the measles whilst you had a tan
You scanned the Autocue with sincere mind

you couldn't
Have scripted it
You couldn't
Have predicted it
 
Puzzled
In the newsrooms
Puzzles on the
Rostrums
As the news
Reader's stumble
The autocue

on TV?
I don't care what you're selling cos I don't have the money.

Vacant faces on the news now,
Read blindly from the auto-cue.
They try to say what

back
Turns out she wasn't Ms. Right
Just right for the night

It's tried and true
Tryna talk to you
It's like you're following an autocue

Now that you

so many lies you always tell

We the people see what you do
With your plastic smiles and your autocues
And your lies, your lies

How much longer can
