Politics is Showbusiness and Showbusiness is politics now Politics is Showbusiness and Showbusiness is politics now Politics is everything and everything is Showbusiness now Life is just a theatre, it's all a living theatre now Life is just a theatre, it's all a living theatre now Theatre's into everything and everything is into theatre now Newspapers have their our language, television's unbelievable History is according to the colour of your skin And where there lies no truth to see how can there be a sin The world is run by signals, we're like a bunch of robots now Come on, slip it into video, pick up your receiver now Levers are adjusting you, your brain has been conditioned now There's no such thing as sport when money plays a midfield role There's no such thing as sport when money plays a midfield role Money's into everything and everything is into money now News media use their own syntax, rivalry destroying the truth Scientists with their faces straight say we are hairless apes While others are convinced that we are merely visionary shapes Politics is Showbusiness and Showbusiness is politics now Showbusiness is politics and politics is Showbusiness now Politics is everything and everything is Showbusiness now Politics is everything and everything is Showbusiness now Politics is everything and everything is Showbusiness now
