FOR THE FRIENDS AND FAMILY OF MICK O'BRIEN R.I.P.

lyrics

Workers get up before dawn
Go to work and then come home
In a hurry 'cos they've got to get
Their homes secure before the sun has set
Afraid to go out on the street
You can't be sure what you might meet
Lock up your daughters, put up your feet
Open a can and watch TV

Chorus

You only see what they want you to see
Is it the truth if it's on the screen?
You only see what they want you to see
Are we all a part of REALITV?


Pick up the paper, what's the news?
Freedom of the press has been abused
Scandalous stories of royalty
How Harry's chopping down the family tree
Tabloids there to cover up
Protect us from reality
Pictures of bimbos with nothing on top
Distracts from life's futility

Chorus

You only see what they want you to see
Is it the truth if it's on the screen?
You only see what they want you to see
Are we all a part of REALITV?

Government spokesman on the news
It's on TV it must be true
We're in this together, me and you
When I feel pain he can feel it too
Things are getting better every day
I want to believe each word he says
But it's getting hard to see
where lying end and the truth begins

Chorus

You only see what they want you to see
Is it the truth if it's on the screen?
You only see what they want you to see
Are we all a part of REALITV?
