Flat Top — текст песни (Goo Goo Dolls)

Flat top intervention
Bringing home the new invention
See it there in pieces on the ground
A television war between the cynics and the saints
Flip the dial and that`s whose side you`re on
Sleeping on the white house lawn ain`t never changed a thing
Look at all the washed out hippie dreams

And it`s falling all around us
Is this some kind of joke they`re trying to pull on us?
Falling all around us
I`ll turn my head off for a while

Tabloid generation`s lost, choking on it`s fear
Used to be that`s all we had to fear conscience keeps us quiet
while the crooked love to speak
There`s knowledge wrapped in blankets on the streets
A visionary coward says that anger can be power
As long as there`s a victim on tv

And it`s falling all around us
Is this some kind of joke they`re trying to pull on us
Falling all around us
I`ll turn my head off for a while

And my dirty dreams all come alive on my TV screen
And assassination plots, show me what I haven`t got
Show me what I love and who I`m supposed to be
Show me everything I need
Show it all to me, show it all to me

And it`s falling all around us
Is this some kind of joke they`re trying to pull on us?
Falling all around us
I`ll turn my head off for a while
