There's garbage on our channels, I spell it MTV
Anyone with cable knows exactly what I mean
Less of a power channel, more fascist country club
But every dope and airhead in the world can't get enough - call it mindless

There's toxins on our airwvaes, I spell it R-A-P
It'd be a lot more accurate if it started with a C
It's true, back in it's early days, it was quite an art
But now it's merely odes to a few select body parts - I call it mindless

Enough of that already, now back to MTV
By far, the world's worst gague of TV quality
Beavis and Butt-head, CDM, Undergrads and Clone High
They kill off their only gems and let the crap multiply - call it brainless

Don't be too happy if you're on MTV
A week from now, you'll be nowhere to be seen
You may be the best, play your guitar mighty fine
But you won't get nowhere unless it's been done 1000 times - call it hopeless
