lyrics

I had no plans, I started watching TV Vaguely remember flipping channels double speed
Apparently, I took a 2-hour snooze Because I woke up to the end of the news Now I'm a better listener asleep than awake
Because impartial commentary damaged my brain
My sense of reason could not weather the attack
And my gray matter has mutated into black
Your eyes look like somebody's stolen your soul
And put your personality into a black hole

Now I'm brainwashed and I'm brain dead
I used to think for myself, now my lobes hang by a thread
Because I'm brainwashed and I'm brain dead
The news melted my mind and now my brain stem stays in bed

I used to seek out facts and act on my own morals
But since that day I can't connect my own brain signals
My hypothalamus has liquefied and splattered
Prejudice pundits feed me everything that matters
I've got no use for education or experience
I don't relent when presented facts or science
It doesn't matter that my brain has no defenses
Bottom lines and ratings don't have human consequences

Broken Barcodes Columbus, Ohio

Three neighborhood dads in need of a hobby, united in a quest to fend off boredom, attain unfulfilled juvenile dreams and make use of those dusty instruments, all while trying to not piss off the neighbors.

A punk band from Columbus, Ohio. Heavily inspired by 1990’s pop punk, early hardcore and the Ramones.
