Here we go - vertigo
Video vertigo
Test for echo
Here we go - in slo-mo
Video vertigo
Test for echo
Some kind of trouble on the sensory screen
Camera curves over caved-in cop cars
Bleacher-creatures, would-be desperados
Clutch at plausible deniability
Don't touch that dial-
We're in denial
Until the showcase trial on TV
Some kind of pictures on the sense o'clock news
Miles of yello tape - silhoutted chalklines
Tough-talking hoodboys in pro-team logo knockoffs
Conform to uniforms of some corporate entity
Don;t change that station
It's Gangster Nation
Now crime's in syndication on TV
What a show - vertigo
Video vertigo
Test for echo
Touch and go - vertigo
Video vertigo
Test for echo
Some kind of drama live on satallite
Hidden camera coverage from the crime scene to the courtroom
Nail-biting hoodboys in borrowed ties and jackets
Clutching at the straws of respectability
Can't do the time?
Don't do the crime
And wind up on the perp walk on TV
