lyrics

Mind control as time goes by it's easier than you might think
Just have some kids and bring them up in the suburban North East
Teach the girls to raise their hands and teach the boys to make them laugh
Now raise the bar and raise it high and send them on the right track

Oh, keep your eyes on me
Oh, keep your head straight

Here everyone's a sucker for the white house and the cherry lawn
Make your money, grow your shrubs, and pay someone to cut them off
Walk your son to school each day and make sure that he stays in line
Keep him quiet when he sings, straighten his tie and he'll be fine

Oh, keep your eyes on me
Oh, keep your head straight

You're gonna have to
Kill somebody if ya
If you want to be heard, if you want to be heard
