Flesh you needed
You want it for you too
(stares, stares that follow)
(stares, stares that follow)
They want it for you
Are you all that
You're cracked up to be
We all want it for you
Sacrificial
Made for TV
(laughter's coming)
And goodbye kisses
Gave him family
Pray your dream
Pray you're dreaming
Are you all that
You're cracked up to be
We all want it for you
Stares that follow
Friends to call on
Don't be desperate
(show them once)
Sacrificial
Made for TV
Laughter's coming
Goodbye kisses
(pray you stutter)
(pray it's not old)
Goodbye.
Flesh you needed
You want it for you too

We all want it for you

Made for TV

And goodbye kisses
Gave him family
Pray your dream
Pray you're dreaming
Are you all that
You're cracked up to be
We all want it for you
Stares that follow
Friends to call on
Don't be desperate
(show them once)
Sacrificial
Made for TV
Laughter's coming
Goodbye kisses
(pray you stutter)
(pray it's not old)
Goodbye.

0General Comment:knowing del naja - it seems to be about war, about power and being able to use it to assault something much smaller, weaker than you. the current situation in iraq in particular - 'invasion' is really ambiguous and oblique, but the lines "sacrificial, made for t.v.", and "are you all that / you're cracked up to be?" seem indicative of a critical view on america and britain's involvement in the situation. and because d, along with damon albarn, is quite notoriously anti-war on iraq, well. i don't know, i feel like i'm talking out of my arse anyway :|

0General Comment:Stripping literally - or selling one's self and sacrificing that self for a superficial attention probably because one does not know themselves well enough.Flag StoicTrueBrujahon May 20, 2007 Link
