My dearest boy have a look around you
What do you see, what do you feel like
Oh my dear boy I can tell you
That’s the worst illness on the earth

People going crazy
Stare’n completely dazedly at everything
TV’s luring stupid juvies
Can’t you see this cruel society

Have a look inside your head
What do you see when you open your mind
It is mankind
A black hole sucking out intelligence
Fed by their weird habits and minds
Don’t let them push you down
Hold on to yourself
Ignore the foolish voices
Of that kind of man

I am afraid of our society
A mutated system taking lives
How medias increase stupidity
In such incredible variety

Blockheads hang around in stations
Search for inspiration in alcohol
Damn, where is our education
When a child dies of starvation
Cause nobody cares

Have a look inside your head
What do you see when you open your mind
It is mankind
A black hole sucking out intelligence
Fed by their weird habits and minds
Don’t let them push you down
Hold on to yourself
Ignore the foolish voices
Of that kind of man

Open your eyes
Open your mind
Open your heart
Open your soul
