Don't Buy the Hype Influenza

It won't be easy, you'll feel deranged
When they try to explain how you'll feel
And you'll still need the One to protect you from the flu
You won't believe it
All you will see is the hype on the Tube
All the channels you'll find all in line
Twenty-Four Seven it's true.

They had to let it happen, we have to Change!
Couldn't live all our lives and be real
Looking out for some crisis, saying, "Doubt not the One!"
But I choose freedom!

Rejecting the hype, watching everything brew
Obama impressed me not at all
I never expected him to.

[Chorus:]
Don't buy the hype Influenza
The truth is not ever told you
But if you listen
To newsmen raging
They'll talk of crisis
They'll be insistent

And your misfortune, and who to blame
They surely won't tell you the truth
Though it seems on the tube that it all transpired
They breed confusion
They are not the solutions they promised to be
The answer is here in your mind
They are surreal and only tell lies

Don't buy the hype Influenza
The truth is not ever told you
But if you listen
To newsmen raging
They'll talk of crisis
They'll be insistent

Is it all too much?
There's nothing more they can think of to say to you
But all you have to do is use your head to know
That Not One Word is True.
