World Entertainment War

World Entertainment War is an American funk rock band, formed in 1986, noted for its memorable costumes, props, and antics, both on and off-stage and for songs containing intricate lyrics of a political and often humorous nature. They have been described as having, "catchy tunes, fierce musical chops, thought-provoking lyrics and a unique tribal funk-rock sound," and their sound has been called, "friendly, mischievous, groove-based rock with a powerful message, played with passion and professionalism." They recorded four records before disbanding in 1993, and then played reunion concerts in 2000 and 2001, and again in 2009. The band describes itself as “a benevolent media virus programmed to prevent the entertainment criminals from stealing your imagination." more »

What time is it, boys and girls?
It's time for the Dark Ages!
Your nightmares and traumas 
 
Can make you rich and famous
Commercials can teach you 
 
All that you need to know
Kiss my flag Don't look back
The past is gaining on us
Read my lips Watch my hips

These are the Dark Ages
George Orwell's dream came true
But no one realizes
It crushed us so nicely

With so much wit and style
Entertainment might as well be
Just like a rocket launcher
Too bad it's in the hands of the enemy

Nobody believes me
And so I know that I'm right
Charisma addiction gives me a deja vu
Is this like Germany in the 1930s?

Do we have to 
Live through the apocalypse again?
Might be the Dark Ages
But we're so happy

Happy to be here today
You never know when you 
Might have to face the censor
So I don't pretend to

Want to make too much sense
Revolution on TV
In far-off distant countries
Too bad 

 t's just another mini-series here
Nobody believes me
And so I know that I'm right
Charisma hangover 

Has got to wear off soon
Could this be like Eastern Europe 
In the 1990s?
Will we ever get a chance 

To have perestroika here?
