And in the name of
COMMUNICATION AND CULTURE
They put magic boxes
In each house and cave
To show and tell viewers
The murders and mayhem of each day
Brutal contact sports and violent dramas
To illustrate the genius of those who do evil
And the fanaticism of those
Who chase the evil-doers.
The media wasn't to blame.
What better way to keep viewers awake
For the all-important commercial break
Which paid their wages
Than action?
But it was strange
For it made more restlessness
And dissatisfaction.
