Toto - 21st Century Blues lyrics

Used to be you could trust what you heard
The channels were three
When news didn't seem so absurd
The words set you free
Now they tell you what to think
And that the sky is green
Am I the only one to see
That it's a big machine someone tell me

How can we believe the world is round
(I just can't conceive it)
All we see and hear the truth has drown
(It's all but disappeared)
How can we believe the world is round
(It's hard to perceive it)
Shake your head and scream
But there's no sound
(We've got the 21st Century Blues)

Now here and now everything's upside down
It's all a big lie
Some with suit's will shoot up the town
They won't be denied
How many people got to die
Before we lend a hand
I can see myself living
In their promised land someone help me

Now they tell you what to think
And that the sky is green
Am I the only one to see
That it's a big machine
