The Age Of Unpleasantness

from I'll Take You To The Airport by Andy Lewis

/

lyrics

There's no flicker of emotion, no trace of empathy flits across your face, talking tough for the television announcing a new initiative...this is the dawning of the age of unpleasantness, taking control of the news and marginalizing our views. The unkind, ignorant and prejudiced set the agenda and no-one seems to care. Plumbing the depths of public opinion, bring on the bigoted and the mad...this is the dawning of the age of unpleasantness, desperate, artless and mean, trampling over our dreams, poisoning all of our pride, forcing us all to take sides, turning up the level of the fear threshold, ramping up the pressure on our sanity with yet another conspiracy, cutting things down to the bone, throwing us out of our homes, kicking us all when we're down, pricing us out of our town, trying to set friend against friend and helping the world to an end.
