Talk Shows On Mute Lyrics


Take a bow
Pack on powder
Wash em out with buzzing lights
Pay an au-
Dience to care
Impress me personality
Still intransfixed

The electric sheep are dreaming of your face
Enjoy you from
The chemical
Comfort of america
Come one come all
Into 1984
Ya 3 2 1
Lights! camera! transaction!

Quick your time
Is almost up
Make all forget that they're the moth
Edging in
Toward the flame burn into obscurity
Still intransfixed
The electric sheep are dreamin up your fate

We judge you fom
The card castle
Comfort of america
Come one come all
Into 1984
Ya 3 2 1
Lights! camera! yeah!

Come one come all
Into 1984
Ya 3 2 1
Lights! camera! transaction!
Lights! camera! transaction!
Oh

Come one come all
Into 1984
Ya 3 2 1
Lights! camera! transaction!
Ho

Your foundation
Is canyoning
Fault lines should be worn with pride
I hate to say it
Your so much more
Your so much more
Endearing with
The sound turned off

Talk Shows On Mute
  • This is about the mind-numbing effects of TV talk shows. The phrase, "Come one, Come all into 1984" is not referring to the year but to a book written by George Orwell called 1984, which is about a man living in a totalitarian oligarchy. (thanks, Will - Portland, OR)
  • Lead singer Brandon Boyd: "I was on an airplane when a talk show began playing on the TVs. I decided to start narrating for the people, which is a really great game if you're ever bored enough. I realized a time will probably come when television will watch us if we're watching it, if that hasn't already happened, figuratively or literally. It sounded like some sort of pseudo-Big Brother nightmare, so I wrote it down." (thanks, Tim - Pittsburgh, PA)
