Mental Pollution - Jo Davidson

music and lyrics by jo davidson

Well I can't blame the rain
for all of my pain 
and I can't blame the clouds 
and I can't blame the sky 
or be jealous of the birds that 
fly 

does anybody hear me 
does anybody hear me 
because I don't 

because I lost my hearing long ago
from the media bombs going off in my living room 
lies on the tv 
lies in the movies
lies on the billboards
nobody tells the truth
I'm going deaf 

does anybody hear me 
does anybody hear 
because I don't 

I'm tired of all the violence
we've lost lives enough 
and I'm tired of all the nudity so much sex without love
and I'm tired of all the smokers blowing smoke in my face
and the same old boring models decorating every fashion page 
I don't trust the politicians 
or the movie ratings board 
and I'm tired of fighting all these inner and outer wars
I've got bullets in my head 
I've got blood in my ears 
and the world could drown from the truth that's in my tears 

does anybody hear me 
does anybody hear 
because I don't because I. . .
