F# B C#  
Hi! I'm your video DJ  
F# B C#  
I always talk like I'm wigged out on quaaludes  
F# B C# F# B C#  
I wear a satin baseball jacket everywhere I go  
F# B C#  
My job is to help destroy  
F# B C#  
What's left of your imagination  
F# B C#  
By feeding you endless doses  
F# B C#  
Of sugar-coated mindless garbage  
F# B C#  
So don't create Be sedate  
F# B C#  
Be a vegetable at home And thwack on that dial  
F# B C#  
If we have our way even you will believe (Fun fun fun... ends)

This is the future of rock and roll  
 
(M.T.V GET OFF THE AIR!)  
 

F# B A  
How far will you go  
F# B A  
How low will you stoop  
B A B A  
To tranquilize our minds with your sugar-coated swill

Into Pat Boone sedation  
B A B D  
Making sure nothing's left of the imagination

See the latest rejects from the muppet show  
B A  
Wag their tits and their dicks  
B A  
As they lip-synch on screen  
F#  
There's something I don't like  
B A F# B A  
About a band who always smiles

Another tax write-off

C# B  
And so it was  
C# B  
Our beloved corporate gods  
F# E F# E  
Claimed they created rock video  
C# B C# B  
Allowing it to sink as low in one year  
F# E C#  
As commercial TV has in 25  
C#m B  
"It's the new frontier," they say  
A G#  
It's wide open, anything can happen  
C#m  
But you've got a lot of nerve  
B  
To call yourself a pioneer  
A  
When you're too god-damn conservative  
G#  
To take real chances.  
 

C# B  
Tin-eared  
C# B F#  
Graph-paper brained accountants  
E F# E  
Instead of music fans  
C# B C# B  
Call all the shots at giant record companies now  
F# E C#  
The lowest common denominator rules  
C#m  
Forget honesty  
B  
Forget creativity  
A  
The dumbest buy the mostest  
G#  
That's the name of the game  
C#m  
But sales are slumping  
B  
And no one will say why  
A G#  
Could it be they put out one too many lousy records?!?  
C# B F#  
M.T.V. - Get off the air!  
F#  
NOW!
