when i tune in and turn off my brain and the world is running circles on me i turn on the telly i flick thru the channels im wondering what it means to be free familiarity breeds the devil they say as i lay right back and inhale away the remake of the remake of the remake of the year its riveting viewing for all when i turn up my ears are on the air where did the decade go? a fetish for the hip a gimmick or a toy shuffle through the desert of noise familiarity breeds the devil they say as i lay right back and inhale away the remake of the remake of the remake of the year its riveting viewing for all drowning in my seat, its just a repeat its an endless life at ease the middle class disease im gasping for air, its more than i can bear its an endless life of pain without a point to gain when i turn off and tune out for a second i can't seem to let it go theres no more room to anti status quo welcome two zero one one familiarity breeds the devil they say as i lay right back and inhale away the remake of the remake of the remake of the year its riveting viewing for all
