We saw this song coming, didn't we?

"Yeah, but they can't take away what happened, what we found out."

"Easy.  They just let us forget.  Give us too much to process, fill up
every minute, keep us distracted, it's what the Tube is for, and
though it kills me to say it, it's what rock and roll is becoming --
just another way to claim our attention, so that beautiful certainty
we had starts to fade, and after a while they have us convinced all
over again that we really are going to die.  And they've got us
again."

I think it's time to call up Negativland and make ourselves a remix.
