Mort Garson - Prologue lyrics

[Mort Garson - Prologue lyrics]

This is the story of why Dorothy
Began her search for the
Wonderful Wozard of Iz -
Or somewhere over white rainbow

Dorothy: Locked in to one suburban
Acre of negative vibrations

Boxed in with a pair of authority symbols!
A hypnotized aunt, and a mesmerized uncle
Who had turned life off and
Turned the television set ON and ON
And ON and ON
Mass media presents the news!
"RIOTS! RIOTS! RIOTS!" Says the Scared Crow
"Berkley, Columbia, De Gaulle De Gaulle
Peace Murder!" Says the Scared Crow
"Muhammad Ali, Sonny Liston, New York Mets
, Humphreys, High level low
"! Says the Scared Crow



Masked media take off your mask
We want to see your face
"God is dead!" says the Scared
Crow death is a
Lie! Mass media your mask is in a sling

"TV or not TV that is
The question whether it
Is nobler to suffer the lies and promises of
Outrageous pitchmen or to slit
Your throat with an
Electroplated stainless steel blade?" says
The In man
"Chuckles this season" says the In man
"Snickers this season, giggles this season
"hahas" and "teehees" this season
This season" says the in man it's
All there on the laugh track!

It’s funny that Dino drinks isn't
It funny that Dino drinks?
Isn't it very funny that Dino Drinks?
Isn’t it funny?

"That's entertainment baby!" says
The Lyin' Coward
How can I kill thee? Let me count the ways
A Colt 45? 38?! Stiletto?! Machete?!
Under the wheels of a moving train?!
Out of a penthouse window?!
A karate chop above the lip?!
Below the lip?! Ice pick in eye?!
Toothpick in tooth?!
"That's entertainment!" says the
Lyin' Coward
That's where the body is buried
After it's tortured
