Dumb It Down

Everybody's looking for the real thing
But everybody's in a tizzy arguing
There's a cloud of resistance undermining
There's a growing obsession and we're suffering
An arrogant omission in the belt way
Forgetting past sins
Can only lead astray

Do the mess around
Spin it round and round
Everybody dumb it down
Dumb it down

No more room for the misfit
No air play without a smash hit
The odd man out is chompin' at the bit
Corruption's feeding and everybody's gettin' lit
The truth going down in the quicksand
Do whatever it takes, to fill supply on demand

Do the mess around
Spin it round and round
Everybody dumb it down
Dumb it down
Everybody dumb it down
Dumb it down

In your sleepy eyes
The ghost of Malachi

Do the mess around
Spin it round and round
Everybody dumb it down
Dumb it down
Everybody dumb it down
Dumb it down
