about

An obsession with celeb trivia risks taking our eye off the real stuff (2008)

lyrics

Awards are being won for showing people asleep,
There are standards below ground that everyone must keep,
The bar's set so low that the drinks are under the house,
It's a world where people with nothing to say still shout.

What does the X stand for?
Where will it end?
Victorian Freak Show returns.

Our enemies may not get us in the end,
We're in far more danger from our friends.

We wander anaesthetised from night to day,
In a fog of trivia that leaves us with nothing to say,
Except which celebrities dance, cook and skate,
We're all too drowsy to snap out before it's too late.

What does the X stand for?
Where will it end?
Victorian Freak Show returns.

Our enemies may not get us in the end,
We're in far more danger from our friends
