FLOBOTS LYRICS - There's A War Going On For Your Mind

"There's A War Going On For Your Mind"



Media mavens mount surgical strikes from trapper keeper collages and online magazine racks

Cover girl cutouts throw up pop-up ads

Infecting victims with silicone shrapnel

Worldwide passenger pigeons deploy paratroopers

Now it's raining pornography

Lovers take shelter

Post-production debutantes pursue you in Nascar chariots



They construct ransom letters from biblical passages and bleed mascara into the holy water

supplies



There's a war going on for your mind



Industry insiders slang test tube babies to corporate crack heads

They flash logos and blast ghettos

Their embroidered neckties say "Stop Stitching"

Conscious rappers and whistle blowers get stitches made of acupuncture needles and marionette

strings



There is a war going on for your mind



Professional wrestlers and vice presidents want you to believe them

The desert sky is their blue screen

They superimpose explosions

They shout at you

"Pay no attention to the men behind the barbed curtain

Nor the craters beneath the draped flags

Those hoods are there for your protection

And meteors these days are the size of corpses"



There's a war going on for your mind



We are the insurgents
