Mr. MTV Lyrics

Free drugs, cheap sex
Fake tans, big breasts
High times, pimped rides
Lost days to blackout nights

I need this, I need that
I'm not complete with what I have
If I do this, If I buy that
I'll get mine, I'll get mine

I want, I want, I want

Empty me, empty nation
Emptied us of inspiration
Bastard sons and broken daughters
All bow down to our corporate father

In my iLife, in my iWorld
On my iPhone, with my iGirl
Just one bite to understand
Even Eve couldn't live without the iPlan

I want, I want, I want life
I want, I want, I want

Empty me, empty nation
Emptied us of inspiration
Bastard sons and broken daughters
All bow down to our corporate father

Empty me, empty nation
Emptied us of inspiration
Bastard sons and broken daughters
All bow down to our corporate father

I want, I want, I want
I want, I want, I need it

I! Do this, I! Buy that
I! Get my drugs and sex
I! Do this, I! Buy that
I! Get my drugs and sex
More drugs, want sex, need sex

MTV, MTnation
MTus of inspiration
Bastard sons and broken daughters
All bow down to our corporate father

Empty me, empty nation
Emptied us of inspiration
Bastard sons and broken daughters
All bow down to our corporate father

Corporate father!
Bastard sons and broken daughters
All bow down to our corporate father

I! Do this, I! Buy that
I! Get my drugs and sex

Mr. MTV Song Chart

Nothing More bassist Daniel Oliver explained this song's meaning: "It points out the fact that there are people that make money, and their sole job is to change your mind and your behavior, for whatever they want," he said. "And I do think there's an evil in that alone, let alone when you combine it with something that's supremely wrapped around vanity and things like that, where you have kids whose self image is based on television and not based on the family system."

"Or you see relationships being based off sex and lust and no longer about a personal connection between two people," Oliver added. "'Cause a lot of times, it seems like people are kind of sold a personal connection in themselves and in anything for just some menial bullcrap they see on TV."

The song starts off with a sample of the "I want my MTV" line from Dire Straits "Money For Nothing."
