Today On Television 
Mike Shaner 

Hey baby
Fly your flag
Paint it tie-dye
Paint it black
I don’t care about
Anything like that

Hey baby 
Stand your ground
I know you’ll be there to judge
When the ones you don't like
Get shot down

Hey hey 
As for me
I’m just gonna go on
Living free

Hey baby
Worship the anchor
Worship the state
Worship the love
You so love to hate

Raise your graven images
Bow to your golden calves
Take from the poor
Take from the haves
I can’t agree to anything like that

Standing with your friends
As I stand all alone
I see clearly now
That I am grown

Do what you will 
Just let me be
I’m just gonna keep on
Being free

Justify surveillance 
State approved science
Slaughter us all
For mass non compliance

Re-education 
With a shotgun blast
You know I can’t stand
For anything like that

Move with the pleasure 
Of the man on tv
I’ll keep on moving
With the rhythm of me

I’m just gonna keep on being free
