Just when religion was starting to play out,
We got TV.
Now we can have the opiate of the people
On opiates.

Or we can show the world the beef stroganoff
We're having for supper on social media,
And be defriended because we eat meat,
Or because we made it with tofu.

We can write people off very easily these days.
One synapse doesn't agree,
One touch on a touchscreen,
And our lives are lauda-numbed again.
