[Verse 1]
They've swept up the rubbish
And took out the garbage
No more noise pollution in the air
Just smog

Well sooner than later
Under the radar
They're starting a revolution off the air

[Chorus]
C.C. I've got your quality control

[Verse 2]
They've cleared up the channels
Program and progress
If you haven't noticed you have just been whored
And turned out

Behind the receiver
The silver deceiver
Well we aren't bending over anymore
We've tuned out

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Going to bed with an industry death wish
On an idolless pillow
Sleeping with the fish
The lottery winners they're all talking
But saying nothing and soon they'll be walking

They've swept up the rubbish
And took out the garbage
Program and progress
If you didn't notice
Sooner than later, under the radar
We're starting a revolution off the air

[Chorus]
