British Colonialism & the BBC - Chumbawamba (恰巴王八)[00:00:00]

I'm the boss of the BBC[00:00:07]

I'm the monkey at the top of the media tree[00:00:10]

Your version of the riots in Cape Town[00:00:20]

Comes second-hand from me[00:00:22]

Chewing and spewing this revolution[00:00:26]

For popular TV[00:00:30]

All your opinions are carefully chosen[00:00:33]

By what we'll let you see[00:00:36]

Televised crap dressed up as fact[00:00:39]

Your soap reality[00:00:42]

We only want a chance to show the Editor's side[00:00:46]

Of struggle in the news[00:00:49]

Closer and closer to the State's eye view[00:00:53]

And further from the truth[00:00:56]

Push a microphone to the mouth of this youth[00:00:59]

Bewildered and confused[00:01:02]

Misreported distorted misquoted[00:01:05]

A ready-made victim to be used[00:01:08]

Quote you on things that you never said[00:01:12]

Put this pencil to your head[00:01:15]

Kill your revolution dead[00:01:19]

TV tells us what to be and what to say and what to do[00:01:36]

How to act and how to lie but never question why[00:01:39]

Fighting to stop this mass-deception[00:01:43]

Fighting to scrap the pass-laws[00:01:49]

Fighting to end misuse of land[00:01:56]

Fighting to close down diamond mines[00:02:02]

Fighting to feed their hungry mouths[00:02:09]

Fighting to change the world[00:02:16]

And here we sit on a fence[00:02:18]

Built by distance and enforced by lies[00:02:25]

Is a full stomach all it takes[00:02:31]

To keep us pacified[00:02:34]
