[Verse 1]
Radio! An insidious form
Helping shape thoughts, making you conform
Programming music, easy listening
Helps you to achieve that moronic grin
Playing you regurgitated pap
Selling products uhat are mostly crap
Rarely hearing music you wanna hear
It has an effect over all these years

[Chorus]
Why don't you think for yourself?
Live in this self made hell

[Verse 2]
Television! The idiot tube
Helps to raise our children as fools
Watch the news, see what they want you to see
Our awareness is limited by network VPs
Moronic sit-coms and one sided news
Alter your feeling, give you conformist views
Why can't you get that garbage out of your head?
You're better off to read a good book instead

[Chorus]
Why don't you think for yourself?
Live in this self made hell
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
Newspapers! What do they say?
Not much I think, when they want school kids to pray
Getting the facts from some daily news
You hate the system but adhere to its views
Blaming the dead because they can't complain
Shielding officials, holding them above the blame
You better wake up and see what's plain to see
Or end up a willing part of the machine

[Chorus]
Why don't you think for yourself?
Live in this self made hell
Why don't you think for yourself?
You must think for yourself
