Reality

Why are you complaining about the violence on tv
When the biggest problem is the violence in reality
you say the media's responsible for choosing what they show
but I think we're all smart enough to know
that the news is here to show us what is really going on
entertainment isn't real so how could it be wrong
There ain't no point in banning everything you hate to see,
cos if you don't approve all you really have to do is turn off your tv

Violence was here before we had the television,
so I don't think the people really need your supervision
cos nobody was laughing when the scenes of war exploded
it's easier to laugh when the gun ain't loaded
In reality you're dead when you're a victim of a gun
but on a television show the situation can be fun
cos the biggest jokes in life are always based on our reality,
the difference is an actor doesn't kill to make his salary

Chorus:
You can't stop the violence with your fake morality
cos human nature made brutality
You can't stop the violence with your fake morality
when human nature made brutality
Why are you complaining
Why are you complaining
Why are you complaining
the only real problem is the violence in reality

if you want to ban a violent show then ban the news
cos thats the only film everybody's gonna lose
You cant' chose and no one's getting payed,
the only thing that's happening is people getting slayed
Film fiction is a reflection of the facts of real life
it's impossible to kill somebody with a plastic knife
so why are you complaining about the violence that you see on tv
when the only real problem is the violence in reality

You can't stop the violence with your fake morality
cos human nature made brutality
You can't stop the violence with your fake morality
when human nature made brutality
Why are you complaining
Why are you complaining
Why are you complaining
the only real problem is the violence in reality
Why are you complaining
Why are you complaining
Why are you complaining
the only real problem is the violence in reality

(the only real problem is the violence in reality)
(the only real problem is the violence in reality)

You can't stop the violence with your fake morality
cos human nature made brutality
You can't stop the violence with your fake morality
when human nature made brutality
Why are you complaining
Why are you complaining
Why are you complaining
the only real problem is the violence in reality
Why are you complaining
Why are you complaining
Why are you complaining
the only real problem is the violence in reality
