From the recording Lightening Strikes EP
Slow Dubstep tune looking at the sad reality of the pantomime that is modern media spin and selective coverage of news events working for an agenda which serves a small percentage of the world's people. It encourages us to look behind the mask and 'transfigure' what we hear.
Lyrics
Fake News - dRedzilla
(Words and music by Roy Jones)
Algorithmic loss of reach
Fake news, fake news
To teach the souls in compliant sleep
Fake shoes, fake shoes
Algorithmic loss of reach
Fake blues, fake blues
To teach the souls in compliant sleep
Fake trues, fake trues
Abuse, confuse
Fake news
Transfigure
The corporate poppy propaganda
Misuse, misuse
Neuters neutralising negative
Confuse, confuse
The corporate poppy propaganda
Misuse, misuse
Neuters neutralising negative
Fake news, fake news
Politicians accuse their enemies
Of what they’re guilty of
Fake news
Misdirection, phoney media spin
Tabloid mind-wash
Fake news
Fake news
F-f-f-fake news
Abuse, confuse
Fake news
Transfigure
Ask yourself the question
Just who benefits from this perception?
Evidence and introspection
Greed reveals a cruel intention
Neuters neutralising negative
Abuse, confuse
Fake news
Transfigure
Fake news
Fake news
F-f-f-fake news
Abuse, confuse
Fake news
Transfigure
Politicians accuse their enemies
Of what they’re guilty of
Misdirection, phoney media spin
Tabloid mind-wash
Fake news
Fake news
Transfigure
