Strangled by the stereowire
Cut and depressed in the victim's eye

Splintered and strained as the rupture grows
Is all cynically thrown down a swallowing throat

Leaks to the press so the people know

Is all cynically thrown down a swallowing throat

Is all cynically thrown down a swallowing throat
